More quotes by Gautama Buddha
You are what you think about.
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
Please, try to eat a bit less meat, a bit more veggies from today. Let it become a habit gradually until not to eat meat anymore. Then, observe the changing of the body and spirit after eating veggies, fruits and grains.
Gautama Buddha
There is no more self-contradictory concept than that of idle thoughts. What gives rise to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called idle. Every thought we have either contributes to truth or to illusion.
Gautama Buddha
Born out of concern for all beings.
Gautama Buddha
There are two things that we should avoid, oh disciple! A life of pleasures, that is low and vain. A life of mortification, that is useless and vain.
Gautama Buddha
Live contemplating the body. Contemplate internally and externally. Contemplate the origination of things in the body. Contemplate the dissolution of things in the body.
Gautama Buddha
This is how to contemplate our conditioned existence in this fleeting world: Like a tiny drop of dew, or a bubble floating in a stream Like a flash of lightning in a summer cloud, Or a flickering lamp, an illusion, a phantom, or a dream. So is all conditioned existence to be seen.
Gautama Buddha
Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.
Gautama Buddha
If you are poor, live wisely. If you have riches, live wisely. It is not your station in life but your heart that brings blessings.
Gautama Buddha
Awake. Be the witness of your thoughts. You are what observes, not what you observe.
Gautama Buddha
May all that have life be delivered from suffering.
Gautama Buddha
These teachings are like a raft, to be abandoned once you have crossed the flood. Since you should abandon even good states of mind generated by these teachings, How much more so should you abandon bad states of mind!
Gautama Buddha
Do not be jealous of others' good qualities, but out of admiration adopt them yourself.
Gautama Buddha
Your mind is a powerful thing. When you filter it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change.
Gautama Buddha
He who harms living beings is, for that reason, not an ariya (a Noble One) he who does not harm any living being is called an ariya.
Gautama Buddha
You are as the yellow leaf. The messengers of death are at hand. You are to travel far away. What will you take with you? You are the lamp To lighten the way. Then hurry, hurry. When your light shines.
Gautama Buddha
Few cross over the river. Most are stranded on this side. On the riverbank they run up and down. But the wise man, following the way, Crosses over, beyond the reach of death. He leaves the dark way For the way of light.
Gautama Buddha
Only within our body, with its heart and mind, can bondage and suffering be found, and only here can we find true liberation.
Gautama Buddha
As a water bead on a lotus leaf, as water on a red lily, does not adhere, so the sage does not adhere to the seen, the heard, or the sensed.
Gautama Buddha
