More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Do not look at the faults of what others have done or not done observe what you yourself have done or not done.
Gautama Buddha
When words are both true and kind, they can change the world.
Gautama Buddha
You have no cause for anything but gratitude and joy.
Gautama Buddha
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
It is because I perceive the danger in the practice of mystic wonders, that I loath, abhor, and am ashamed thereof.
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
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles.
Gautama Buddha
Looking deeply at life as it is in this very moment, the meditator dwells in stability and freedom.
Gautama Buddha
Unkind people spread malicious tales, and well-intentioned people also censure but in either case the tranquil sage remains unconcerned. Nowhere is there to be found a disconcerted sage.
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
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
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
It is more important to prevent animal suffering, rather than sit to contemplate the evils of the universe praying in the company of priests.
Gautama Buddha
Believe nothing because it is written in books. Believe nothing because wise men say it is so. Believe nothing because it is religious doctrine. Believe it only because you yourself know it to be true.
Gautama Buddha
To support mother and father, to cherish wife and children, and to be engaged in peaceful occupation - this is the greatest blessing.
Gautama Buddha
Buddha is in our hearts. Buddha is in our mouths. Buddha is in our daily lives.
Gautama Buddha
The worlds originate so that truth may come and dwell therein.
Gautama Buddha
The world is afflicted by death and decay. But the wise do not grieve, having realized the nature of the world.
Gautama Buddha
Until he has unconditional and unbiased love for all beings, man will not find peace.
Gautama Buddha
You are the community now. Be a lamp for yourselves. Be your own refuge. Seek for no other. All things must pass. Strive on diligently. Don’t give up.
Gautama Buddha
