More quotes by Gautama Buddha
The seeker is that which is being sought.
Gautama Buddha
The less you have, the less you have to worry about.
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
Let us live most happily, free from hatred in the midst of the hateful Let us remain free from hatred in the midst of people who hate.
Gautama Buddha
This life of separateness may be compared to a dream, a phantasm, a bubble, a shadow, a drop of dew, a flash of lightning.
Gautama Buddha
Like a beautiful flower that is colorful but has no fragrance, even well spoken words bear no fruit in one who does not put them into practice.
Gautama Buddha
To live a single day and hear a good teaching is better than to live a hundred years without knowing such teaching.
Gautama Buddha
One may desire a spurious respect and precedence among one's fellow monks, and the veneration of outsiders. Both monks and laity should think it was my doing. They should accept my authority in all matters great or small. This is a fool's way of thinking. His self-seeking and conceit just increase.
Gautama Buddha
Sandalwood, tagara, lotus, jasmine - the fragrance of virtue is unrivalled by such kinds of perfume.
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
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
Monks, we who look at the whole and not just the part, know that we too are systems of interdependence, of feelings, perceptions, thoughts, and consciousness all interconnected. Investigating in this way, we come to realize that there is no me or mine in any one part, just as a sound does not belong to any one part of the lute.
Gautama Buddha
Treat others with respect. How you treat others will be how they treat you.
Gautama Buddha
Just as a picture is drawn by an artist, surroundings are created by the activities of the mind
Gautama Buddha
Joyously participate in the sorrows of others.
Gautama Buddha
It is impossible to underestimate the significance of your today's choices
Gautama Buddha
Household life is crowded and dusty life gone forth is wide open... Suppose I shave off my hair and beard, put on the ochre robe, and go forth from the home life into homelessness.
Gautama Buddha
If there is a God, it is inconceivable that he would be concerned about my day to day affairs.
Gautama Buddha
The wise man makes an island of himself that no flood can overwhelm.
Gautama Buddha
A contemplative should pay equal attention to concentration, energetic effort and equanimity, and not exclusively to one of these factors only.
Gautama Buddha
