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
Some do not understand that we must die, But those who do realize this settle their quarrels.
Gautama Buddha
As I am, so are others as others are, so am I. Having thus identified self and others, harm no one nor have them harmed.
Gautama Buddha
He whose inflowing thoughts are dried up, who is unattached to food, whose dwelling place is an empty and imageless release - the way of such a person is hard to follow, like the path of birds through the sky.
Gautama Buddha
Many do not realize that we here must die. For those who realize this, quarrels end.
Gautama Buddha
Giving the best to others are giving the best to us. The value of life is not based on how long we live. But, how much can we contribute to others in our society ?
Gautama Buddha
A man may conquer a million men in battle but one who conquers himself is, indeed, the greatest of conquerors.
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
A tree is a wonderful living organism which gives shelter, food, warmth and protection to all living things. It even gives shade to those who wield an axe to cut it down
Gautama Buddha
When you have great joy, you will become Buddhas!
Gautama Buddha
Be a lamp to yourself. Be your own confidence. Hold on to the truth within yourself as to the only truth.
Gautama Buddha
A truly wise man does not play leapfrog with a unicorn.
Gautama Buddha
If you want to understand the causes that existed in the past, look at the results as they are manifested in the present. And if you want to understand what results will be manifested in the future, look at the causes that exist in the present.
Gautama Buddha
Because not even the least Dharma is there found or got at. Therefore is it called 'utmost, right and perfect enlightenment'. Self-identical is that Dharma and nothing is therein at variance. Therefore is it called 'utmost, right and perfect enlighten'
Gautama Buddha
As a flower that is lovely and beautiful, but is scentless, even so fruitless is the well-spoken word of one who practices it not.
Gautama Buddha
Joyously participate in the sorrows of others.
Gautama Buddha
The darkest night is ignorance.
Gautama Buddha
We are shaped by our thoughts we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
Gautama Buddha
Rising early and scorning laziness, remaining calm in time of strife, faultless in conduct and clever in actions. One like this will be praised.
Gautama Buddha
Do not accept anything simply because it has been said by your teacher, or because it has been written in your sacred books, or because it has been believed by many, or because it has been handed down by your ancestors. Accept and live only according to what will enable you to see truth face to face.
Gautama Buddha
The Four Reliances. First, rely on the spirit and meaning of the teachings, not on the words Second, rely on the teachings, not on the personality of the teacher Third, rely on real wisdom, not superficial interpretation And fourth, rely on the essence of your pure Wisdom Mind, not on judgmental perceptions.
