More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Be a light unto yourself.
Gautama Buddha
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west people create disticntions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
Gautama Buddha
Awakening is natural,delusion is not
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
An unreflective mind is a poor roof. Passion, like the rain, floods the house. But if the roof is strong, there is shelter. Whoever follows impure thoughts Suffers in this world and the next. In both worlds he suffers And how greatly.
Gautama Buddha
If a traveller does not meet with one who is his better, or his equal, let him firmly keep to his solitary journey there is no companionship with a fool.
Gautama Buddha
There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it. To live a pure unselfish life, one must count nothing as one's own in the midst of abundance.
Gautama Buddha
The fool who recognizes his foolishness, is a wise man. But the fool who believes himself a wise man, he really is a fool.
Gautama Buddha
Know from the rivers in clefts and in crevices: those in small channels flow noisily, the great flow silent. Whatever's not full makes noise. Whatever is full is quiet.
Gautama Buddha
All that we are is the result of what we have thought what we think we become.
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
With his mind free from the inflow of thoughts and from restlessness, by abandoning both good and evil, an alert man knows no fear.
Gautama Buddha
How deeply did you learn to let go?
Gautama Buddha
What is the appropriate behavior for a man or a woman in the midst of this world, where each person is clinging to his piece of debris? What's the proper salutation between people as they pass each other in this flood?
Gautama Buddha
Your mind is a powerful thing. When you filter it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change.
Gautama Buddha
We begin to die from the moment we are born, for birth is the cause of death. The nature of decay is inherent in youth, the nature of sickness is inherent in health, in the midst of life we are verily in death.
Gautama Buddha
As long as one feels that he is the doer, he cannot escape from the wheel of births.
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
Those who by form did see me and those who followed me by voice. Wrong the efforts they engaged in, those people will not see me.
Gautama Buddha
He whose longing has been aroused for the indescribable, whose mind has been quickened by it, and whose thought is not attached to sensuality is truly called one who is bound upstream.
Gautama Buddha
