More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Delight in meditation and solitude. Compose yourself, be happy. You are a seeker.
Gautama Buddha
A wise man, recognizing that the world is but an illusion, does not act as if it is real, so he escapes the suffering.
Gautama Buddha
A man should first direct himself in the way he should go. Only then should he instruct others.
Gautama Buddha
To avoid causing terror to living beings, let the disciple refrain from eating meat.
Gautama Buddha
Just as a solid rock is not shaken by the storm, even so the wise are not affected by praise or blame.
Gautama Buddha
Imagine that every person in the world is enlightened but you. They are all your teachers, each doing just the right things to help you learn perfect patience, perfect wisdom, perfect compassion.
Gautama Buddha
There are having flowers in Spring, breezes in Summer, moon in Autumn, snows in Winter. If there is nothing worrying over you, it will be the best seasons at all times.
Gautama Buddha
There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it.
Gautama Buddha
Read as few words as you like, and speak fewer, but act upon the law.
Gautama Buddha
One should not kill a living being, nor cause it to be killed, nor should one incite another to kill. Do not injure any being, either strong or weak, in the world.
Gautama Buddha
Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.
Gautama Buddha
This life of separateness may be compared to a dream, a phantasm, a bubble, a shadow, a drop of dew, a flash of lightning.
Gautama Buddha
There is no more self-contradictory concept than that of idle thoughts. What gives rise to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called idle. Every thought we have either contributes to truth or to illusion.
Gautama Buddha
Some do not understand that we must die, But those who do realize this settle their quarrels.
Gautama Buddha
A generous heart, kind speech, & a life of service & compassion are the things which renew humanity.
Gautama Buddha
For innumerable reasons, Mahamati, the Bodhisattva, whose nature is compassion, is not to eat any meat.
Gautama Buddha
Cut down the forest, not just a tree. Out of the forest of desire springs danger. By cutting down both the forest of desire and the brushwood of longing, be rid of the forest, bhikkhus.
Gautama Buddha
As a net is made up of a series of ties, so everything in this world is connected by a series of ties. If anyone thinks that the mesh of a net is an independent, isolated thing, he is mistaken. It is called a net because it is made up of a series of interconnected meshes, and each mesh has its place and responsibility in relation to other meshes.
Gautama Buddha
Don't keep searching for the truth, just let go of your opinions.
Gautama Buddha
Love the whole world as a mother loves her only child.
Gautama Buddha
