Quote

The good shine from afar Like the snowy Himalayas. The bad don't appear Even when near, Like arrows shot into the night.

More quotes by Gautama Buddha

Image
One way leads to acquisition, the other leads to nirvana. Realising this a monk should take no pleasure in the respect of others, but should devote himself to solitude.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The mind contains all possibilities.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Master your words. Master your thoughts. Never allow your body to do harm. Follow these three roads with purity And you will find yourself upon the one way, The way of wisdom.
Gautama Buddha
Image
First of all there will appear to you, swifter than lightning, the luminous splendor of the colorless light of Emptiness, and that will surround you on all sides. ...Try to submerge yourself in that light, giving up all belief in a separate self, all attachment to your illusory ego.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Follow the way of virtue. Follow the way joyfully through this world and on beyond.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
Of all footprints, that of the elephant is supreme. Similarly, of all mindfulness meditations, that on death is supreme.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The hunger of passions is the greatest disease.
Gautama Buddha
Image
A fool who recognises his own ignorance is thereby in fact a wise man, but a fool who considers himself wise - that is what one really calls a fool.
Gautama Buddha
Image
All that we are is the result of what we have thought what we think we become.
Gautama Buddha
Image
No one can escape death and unhappiness. If people expect only happiness in life, they will be disappointed.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Once you know the nature of anger and joy is empty and you let them go, you free yourself from karma.
Gautama Buddha
Image
One may desire a spurious respect and precedence among one's fellow monks, and the veneration of outsiders. Both monks and laity should think it was my doing. They should accept my authority in all matters great or small. This is a fool's way of thinking. His self-seeking and conceit just increase.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Confusion conditions activity, which conditions consciousness, which conditions embodied personality, which conditions sensory experiences, which conditions impact, which conditions mood, which conditions craving, which conditions clinging, which conditions becoming, which conditions birth, which conditions aging and death.
Gautama Buddha
Image
One is not a great one because one defeats or harms other living beings. One is so called because one refrains from defeating or harming other living beings.
Gautama Buddha
Image
You have no cause for anything but gratitude and joy.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Of what I know, I have told you only a little. Why have I not told you the rest? Because it would not lead you to Nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Rely on the teaching, not on the person Rely on the meaning, not on the words Rely on the definitive meaning, not on the provisional Rely on your wisdom mind, not on your ordinary mind.
Gautama Buddha
Image
May we live like the lotus, at home in muddy water.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Do not close your eyes before suffering. Find ways to be with those who are suffering by all means, Including personal contact and visits, images, sound. By such means, awaken yourself and others to the reality of suffering in the world.
Gautama Buddha
