More quotes by Gautama Buddha
That which goeth up must needs come down and that which is down must needs go up. But Brahma has ordained that the that that goeth up is seldom the same as the that that hath gone down.
Gautama Buddha
Holding on to anger is like poisoning yourself and hoping someone else will die.
Gautama Buddha
Kindnessis giving others happiness.Compassionis removing others' bitterness.Joyis freeing others from suffering.
Gautama Buddha
Awake. Be the witness of your thoughts. The elephant hauls himself from the mud. In the same way drag yourself out of your sloth.
Gautama Buddha
By giving away food we get more strength. By bestowing clothing on others we gain more beauty. By donating abodes of purity and truth we acquire great treasures.
Gautama Buddha
A contemplative should pay equal attention to concentration, energetic effort and equanimity, and not exclusively to one of these factors only.
Gautama Buddha
It is more important to prevent animal suffering, rather than sit to contemplate the evils of the universe praying in the company of priests.
Gautama Buddha
I knew that most people never see this reality because they attach to the material aspect of the world. Illusions of self and other fill their vision. I also realized there are those with little dust limiting their vision.
Gautama Buddha
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west people create disticntions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
Gautama Buddha
The darkest night is ignorance.
Gautama Buddha
Besides the respect of the lives of human beings, all the animals and plants should be on the list too. That is the real humanitarianism.
Gautama Buddha
Cut out the love of self, like an autumn lotus with thy hand!
Gautama Buddha
As a net is made up of a series of ties, so everything in this world is connected by a series of ties. If anyone thinks that the mesh of a net is an independent, isolated thing, he is mistaken. It is called a net because it is made up of a series of interconnected meshes, and each mesh has its place and responsibility in relation to other meshes.
Gautama Buddha
Wakefulness is the way to life. The fool sleeps As if he were already dead, But the master is awake And he lives forever.
Gautama Buddha
Be it known that Men of dull faculties and slight wisdom, They who cling proudly to signs, Cannot believe in this Dharma. Now I, joyfully and fearlessly, In the midst of the bodhisattvas Frankly casting aside my expedient devices, Merely preach the Unexcelled Path.
Gautama Buddha
Don't pray for lighter burdens, but for stronger backs.
Gautama Buddha
Of what I know, I have told you only a little. Why have I not told you the rest? Because it would not lead you to Nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
You are what you think about.
Gautama Buddha
I, ever knowing the living beings Who tread the Path and those who do not In response to those who may be saved Preach to them a variety of dharmas, Each time having this thought: 'How may I cause the beings To contrive to enter the Unexcelled Path and quickly to perfect the Buddha-body?'
Gautama Buddha
There are three things that cannot long be hidden: the sun, the moon and the truth.
Gautama Buddha
