More quotes by Gautama Buddha
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
The one who wanders independent in the world, free from opinions and viewpoints, does not grasp them and enter into disputations and arguments. As the lotus rises on its stalk unsoiled by the mud and the water, so the wise one speaks of peace and is unstained by the opinions of the world.
Gautama Buddha
Suffering, if it does not diminish love, will transport us to the furthest shore.
Gautama Buddha
I will purify my bodily actions through repeated reflection. I will purify my verbal actions through repeated reflection. I will purify my mental actions through repeated reflection. That's how you should train yourself.
Gautama Buddha
Offend in neither word nor deed. Eat with moderation. Live in your heart. Seek the highest consciousness. Master yourself according to the law. This is the simple teaching of the awakened.
Gautama Buddha
Not even death can wipe out our good deeds
Gautama Buddha
Following the Noble Path is like entering a dark room with a light in the hand the darkness will all be cleared away, and the room will be filled with light.
Gautama Buddha
The wise ones fashioned speech with their thought, sifting it as grain is sifted through a sieve.
Gautama Buddha
Our life is shaped by our mind we become what we think. Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart follow the oxen that draws it. Our life is shaped by our mind we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.
Gautama Buddha
A man may conquer a million men in battle but one who conquers himself is, indeed, the greatest of conquerors.
Gautama Buddha
Awakening is natural,delusion is not
Gautama Buddha
A fool thinks it like honey so long as the bad deed does not bear fruit, but when it does bear fruit he experiences suffering.
Gautama Buddha
There is no fire like greed, No crime like hatred, No sorrow like separation, No sickness like hunger of heart, And no joy like the joy of freedom. Health, contentment and trust Are your greatest possessions, And freedom your greatest joy. Look within. Be still. Free from fear and attachment, Know the sweet joy of living in the way.
Gautama Buddha
It is better to spend one day contemplating the birth and death of all things than a hundred years never contemplating beginnings and endings.
Gautama Buddha
You yourself must strive. The Buddhas only point the way.
Gautama Buddha
He who is kind to animals heaven will protect.
Gautama Buddha
Be it known that Men of dull faculties and slight wisdom, They who cling proudly to signs, Cannot believe in this Dharma. Now I, joyfully and fearlessly, In the midst of the bodhisattvas Frankly casting aside my expedient devices, Merely preach the Unexcelled Path.
Gautama Buddha
I teach about suffering and the way to end it
Gautama Buddha
Good men and bad men differ radically. Bad men never appreciate kindness shown them, but wise men appreciate and are grateful. Wise men try to express their appreciation and gratitude by some return of kindness, not only to their benefactor, but to everyone else
Gautama Buddha
Seeing the similarity to oneself, one should not use violence or have it used.
Gautama Buddha
