More quotes by Gautama Buddha
It is our minds that create this world.
Gautama Buddha
A fool thinks it like honey so long as the bad deed does not bear fruit, but when it does bear fruit he experiences suffering.
Gautama Buddha
When the sleeping snake is gone, then you can rest at ease.
Gautama Buddha
When a man makes utensils out of a metal which has been thoroughly cleansed of dross, the utensils will be excellent. You monks, who wish to follow the Way, make your own hearts clean from the dirt of evil passion, and your conduct will be unimpeachable.
Gautama Buddha
As a mountain is unshaken by the wind, so the heart of a wise person is unmoved by all the changes on this earth.
Gautama Buddha
Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts of resentment are cherished in the mind.
Gautama Buddha
How does one stay mindful? Where feelings are known as they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. Thoughts are known as they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. Perceptions are known they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. This is how a monk stays awake.
Gautama Buddha
Everything is based on mind, is led by mind, is fashioned by mind. If you speak and act with a pure mind, happiness will follow you, as a shadow clings to a form.
Gautama Buddha
Whatever a monk keeps pursuing with his thinking and pondering, that becomes the inclination of his awareness.
Gautama Buddha
The mind is pure and luminous by nature. It is defiled only by adventitious thoughts and emotions
Gautama Buddha
Beings are owners of their action, heirs of their action.
Gautama Buddha
Do not believe anything on the mere authority of teachers or priests. Accept as true and as the guide to your life only that which accords with your own reason and experience, after thorough investigation. Accept only that which contributes to the well-being of yourself and others.
Gautama Buddha
Do not carry with you your mistakes. Do not carry your cares. Travel on alone. Like an elephant in the forest.
Gautama Buddha
To master the pride of defiant selfhood, that in truth is the highest bliss.
Gautama Buddha
The mind that perceives the limitation is the limitation.
Gautama Buddha
Follow not after the vain, understand the ills of sense pleasures. One who is vigilant and meditative, obtains deep joy.
Gautama Buddha
If a man should conquer in battle a thousand and a thousand more, and another should conquer himself, his would be the greater victory, because the greatest of victories is the victory over oneself.
Gautama Buddha
How easy it is to see your brother's faults, How hard it is to face your own.
Gautama Buddha
If beings knew, as I know, the results of giving & sharing, they would not eat without having given.
Gautama Buddha
The number of those endowed with human life is as small as the amount of earth one can place on a fingernail. Life as a human being is hard to sustain--as hard as it is for the dew to remain on the grass. But it is better to live a single day with honor than to live to 120 and die in disgrace.
Gautama Buddha
