More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Nothing ever exists entirely alone everything is in relation to everythiong else.
Gautama Buddha
Monks, we who look at the whole and not just the part, know that we too are systems of interdependence, of feelings, perceptions, thoughts, and consciousness all interconnected. Investigating in this way, we come to realize that there is no me or mine in any one part, just as a sound does not belong to any one part of the lute.
Gautama Buddha
Happiness follows sorrow, sorrow follows happiness, but when one no longer discriminates happiness and sorrow, a good deal and a bad deed, one is able to realize freedom.
Gautama Buddha
As you travel though life, offer good wishes to each being you meet.
Gautama Buddha
Giving the best to others are giving the best to us. The value of life is not based on how long we live. But, how much can we contribute to others in our society ?
Gautama Buddha
As from a large heap of flowers many garlands and wreaths are made, so by a mortal in this life there is much good work to be done.
Gautama Buddha
The true master lives in truth, in goodness and restraint, non-violence, moderation, and purity.
Gautama Buddha
Don't pray for lighter burdens, but for stronger backs.
Gautama Buddha
Better than chanting a thousand words in a dead language is one soothing word spoken in the vernacular.
Gautama Buddha
Holding on to anger is like poisoning yourself and hoping someone else will die.
Gautama Buddha
What is the appropriate behavior for a man or a woman in the midst of this world, where each person is clinging to his piece of debris? What's the proper salutation between people as they pass each other in this flood?
Gautama Buddha
The right time to show your good character is when you are pestered by someone weaker than you.
Gautama Buddha
Awake. Be the witness of your thoughts. You are what observes, not what you observe.
Gautama Buddha
Religion is a cow. It gives milk, but it also kicks.
Gautama Buddha
Being generous, just helping one's relatives and being blameless in one's actions this is the best good luck.
Gautama Buddha
The eating of meat extinguishes the seed of Great Kindness.
Gautama Buddha
You have to do your own work Enlightened Ones will only show the way. Those who practise meditation will free themselves from the chains of death
Gautama Buddha
An pretend and evil friend is haughty to be feared than a unmanageable beast a unmanageable beast may mouthful your build up, but an evil friend fortitude mouthful your intellect.
Gautama Buddha
However young, the seeker who sets out upon the way Shines bright over the world. But day and night the person who is awake Shines in the radiance of the spirit. Meditate. Live purely. Be quiet. Do your work, with mastery. Like the moon, come out from behind the clouds! Shine!
Gautama Buddha
Temperance is a tree which as for its root very little contentment, and for its fruit calm and peace.
Gautama Buddha
