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
As rain falls equally on the just and the unjust, do not burden your heart with judgments but rain your kindness equally on all.
Gautama Buddha
It is within this fathoms-long carcass, with its mind and its notions, that I declare there is the world, the origin of the world, the cessation of the world and the path leading to the cessation of the world.
Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha
Not even death can wipe out our good deeds
Gautama Buddha
We are shaped by our thoughts we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.

Gautama Buddha
Just as a tree, though cut down, can grow again and again if its roots are undamaged and strong, in the same way if the roots of craving are not wholly uprooted sorrows will come again and again
Gautama Buddha
