More quotes by Gautama Buddha
A man may conquer a million men in battle but one who conquers himself is, indeed, the greatest of conquerors.
Gautama Buddha
One of his students asked Buddha, Are you the Messiah? No, answered Buddha. Then are you a healer? No, Buddha replied. Then are you a teacher? the student persisted. No, I am not a teacher. Then what are you? asked the student exasperated. I am awake, Buddha replied.
Gautama Buddha
We begin to die from the moment we are born, for birth is the cause of death. The nature of decay is inherent in youth, the nature of sickness is inherent in health, in the midst of life we are verily in death.
Gautama Buddha
Endurance is one of the most difficult disciplines but it is to the one who endures that the final victory comes.
Gautama Buddha
Those who really seek the path to Enlightenment dictate terms to their mind. Then they proceed with strong determination.
Gautama Buddha
For one who is a learner and who has not yet come to master their mind, but who dwells aspiring for peace from that which binds, making it a matter concerning himself, I know of no other thing as helpful as giving close attention to the mind.
Gautama Buddha
Your actions are your only true belongings.
Gautama Buddha
Anyone who is not working toward the truth is missing the whole point of living.
Gautama Buddha
If we destroy something around us we destroy ourselves. If we cheat another, we cheat ourselves.
Gautama Buddha
Mankind have love, animals have affection. The harmonious and beautiful world is revealed.
Gautama Buddha
Like a lovely flower full of color but lacking in fragrance, are the words of those who do not practice what they teach.
Gautama Buddha
In his ignorance of the whole truth, each person maintains his own arrogant point of view.
Gautama Buddha
All conditioned things are impermanent - when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering.
Gautama Buddha
Observe the life by cause and consequence. Explore the life by wisdom. Treat the life by equality. Complete the life by love.
Gautama Buddha
It is better to spend one day contemplating the birth and death of all things than a hundred years never contemplating beginnings and endings.
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
A generous heart, kind speech, & a life of service & compassion are the things which renew humanity.
Gautama Buddha
Just as a tree, though cut down, sprouts up again if its roots remain uncut and firm, even so, until the craving that lies dormant is rooted out, suffering springs up again and again.
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
People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue.
Gautama Buddha
