How can one ever know anything if they are too busy thinking?
Gautama Buddha
The ignorant man is an ox. He grows in size, not in wisdom.
Gautama Buddha
The mind is the source of happiness and unhappiness by what it chooses to compare the experience with. If it chooses to compare it to something worse then it will create happiness, gratitude and pride but if it chooses to compare it to something better then it will create unhappiness, bitterness and envy.
Gautama Buddha
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
Gautama Buddha
Few are those among men who have crossed over to the other shore, while the rest of mankind runs along the bank. However those who follow the principles of the well-taught Truth will cross over to the other shore, out of the dominion of Death, hard though it is to escape.
Gautama Buddha
A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker.
Gautama Buddha
Just as you have come to know, the false discrimination of yourself, apply this mentally to all phenomena
Gautama Buddha
Your body is precious. It is our vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care.
Gautama Buddha
The fool who thinks he is wise is just a fool. The fool who knows he is a fool is wise indeed.
Gautama Buddha
Rely on the teaching, not on the person Rely on the meaning, not on the words Rely on the definitive meaning, not on the provisional Rely on your wisdom mind, not on your ordinary mind.
Gautama Buddha
Solitude is happiness for one who is content, who has heard the Dhamma and clearly sees. Non-affliction is happiness in the world - harmlessness towards all living beings.
Gautama Buddha
First of all there will appear to you, swifter than lightning, the luminous splendor of the colorless light of Emptiness, and that will surround you on all sides. ...Try to submerge yourself in that light, giving up all belief in a separate self, all attachment to your illusory ego.
Gautama Buddha
As a bee without harming the flower, its colour or scent, flies away, collecting only the honey, even so should the sage wander in the village.
Gautama Buddha
The wind cannot overturn a mountain. Temptation cannot touch the man Who is awake, strong and humble, Who masters hiself and minds the law.
Gautama Buddha
The fool who recognizes his foolishness, is a wise man. But the fool who believes himself a wise man, he really is a fool.
Gautama Buddha
If a person does not harm any living being...and does not kill or cause others to kill - that person is a true spiritual practitioner
Gautama Buddha
Pain in life is inevitable but suffering is not. Pain is what the world does to you, suffering is what you do to yourself [by the way you think about the 'pain' you receive]. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. [You can always be grateful that the pain is not worse in quality, quantity, frequency, duration, etc]
Gautama Buddha
Dignity and quiet joy in all that we do are the expression of perfect concentration and perfect wisdom.
Gautama Buddha
The seeker is that which is being sought.
Gautama Buddha
The true master lives in truth, in goodness and restraint, non-violence, moderation, and purity.
Gautama Buddha
