Those which are produced from causes are not produced. they do not have an inherent nature of production. those which depend on causes are said to be empty those who know emptiness are aware.
Gautama Buddha
Image
One is not low because of birth nor does birth make one holy. Deeds alone make one low, deeds alone make one holy.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Winter always turns into Spring.
Gautama Buddha

To force oneself to believe and to accept a thing without understanding is political, and not spiritual or intellectual.

Joyously participate in the sorrows of others.
Gautama Buddha

When ignorant people see someone who is dead, they are disgusted and horrified, even thought they too will be dead some day. I thought to myself: I don't want to be like the ignorant people. After then, I couldn't feel the usual intoxication with life anymore.
