Everything is extraordinarily clear. I see the whole landscape before me, I see my hands, my feet, my toes, and I smell the rich river mud. I feel a sense of tremendous strangeness and wonder at being alive. Wonder of wonders.

More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Our good and bad deeds follow us almost like a shadow.
Gautama Buddha
By defilement of mind, beings are defiled by purification of mind, beings are purified.
Gautama Buddha
For innumerable reasons, Mahamati, the Bodhisattva, whose nature is compassion, is not to eat any meat.
Gautama Buddha
The wise say that it is not an iron, wooden or fiber fetter which is a strong one, but the besotted hankering after trinkets, children and wives, that, say the wise, is the strong fetter. It drags one down, and loose as it feels, it is hard to break. Breaking this fetter, people renounce the world, free from longing and abandoning sensuality.
Gautama Buddha
If I had even a slight awareness, and practiced the Great Way, what I would fear would be deviating from it.
Gautama Buddha
Mankind have love, animals have affection. The harmonious and beautiful world is revealed.
Gautama Buddha
The wise man makes an island of himself that no flood can overwhelm.
Gautama Buddha
The way to happiness is: keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, give much. Fill your life with love. Do as you would be done by.
Gautama Buddha
Just as the dawn is the forerunner of the arising of the sun, so true friendship is the forerunner of the arising of the noble eightfold path.
Gautama Buddha
Do not be the judge of people do not make assumptions about others. A person is destroyed by holding judgments about others.
Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha
Know well what holds you back, and what moves you forward
Gautama Buddha
Health is the first benefit. Content is the first fortune. Friendliness is the first kindness. Nirvana is the first happiness.
Gautama Buddha
Drop by drop is the water pot filled. Likewise, the wise man, gathering it little by little, fills himself with good.
Gautama Buddha
We must be diligent today. To wait until tomorrow is too late. Death comes unexpectedly. How can we bargain with it?
Gautama Buddha
An outside enemy exists only if there is anger inside.
Gautama Buddha
So too, monks, I saw the ancient path, the ancient road traveled by the Perfectly Enlightened Ones of the past. And what is that ancient path, that ancient road? It is just this Noble Eightfold Path that is, right view, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right concentration.
Gautama Buddha
You must take action yourself, for Buddhas only teach the way.
Gautama Buddha
Let us live most happily, free from hatred in the midst of the hateful Let us remain free from hatred in the midst of people who hate.
Gautama Buddha
Our problems are not solved by physical force, by hatred, by warOur problems are solved by loving kindness by gentleness, by joy
