Wonder of wonders! Intrinsically all living beings are Buddhas, endowed with wisdom and virtue, but because men's minds have become inverted through delusive thinking they fail to perceive this.

Image
I am a finger pointing to the moon. Don't look at me look at the moon.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
Happiness never decreased by being shared.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again, and you will be filled with joy.
Gautama Buddha
Image
One should follow a man of wisdom who rebukes one for one's faults, as one would follow a guide to some buried treasure. To one who follows such a wise man, it will be an advantage and not a disadvantage.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Rage is a powerful energy that with diligent practice can be transformed into fierce compassion. However much we disagree with our enemies, our task is to identify with them. They too feel justified in their point of view.
Gautama Buddha
Image
There is, Oh Monks, a not-born, a not-become, a not-made, a not-compounded. Monks, if that unborn, not-become, not-made, not-compounded were not, there would be no escape from this here that is born, become, made and compounded.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Know what you do not know.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Each day of my life I am sowing seeds that one day I will harvest.
Gautama Buddha
Image
This is how to contemplate our conditioned existence in this fleeting world: Like a tiny drop of dew, or a bubble floating in a stream Like a flash of lightning in a summer cloud, Or a flickering lamp, an illusion, a phantom, or a dream. So is all conditioned existence to be seen.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
For those who are ready the door to the deathless state is open. If you have ears give up the conditions that bind you and enter in.
Gautama Buddha
Image
War ends only when people love each other.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Happy are those who have overcome their egos happy are those who have attained peace happy are those who have found the Truth.
Gautama Buddha
Image
You are what you think about.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Only within our body, with its heart and mind, can bondage and suffering be found, and only here can we find true liberation.
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is good to have companions when occasion arises, and it is good to be contented with whatever comes.
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is our own thoughts that lead us into trouble, not other people.
Gautama Buddha
Image
But if you do not find an intelligent companion, a wise and well-behaved person going the same way as yourself, then go on your way alone, like a king abandoning a conquered kingdom, or like a great elephant in the deep forest.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
