More quotes by 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
The greatest impurity is ignorance. Free yourself from it. Be pure.
Gautama Buddha
How can one ever know anything if they are too busy thinking?
Gautama Buddha
No clouds gathered in the skies and the polluted streams became clear, whilst celestial music rang through the air and the angels rejoiced with gladness. With no selfish or partial joy but for the sake of the law they rejoiced, for creation engulfed in the ocean of pain was now to obtain release.
Gautama Buddha
Truth is always truth, untruth is always untruth. This is what matters, this is right desire.
Gautama Buddha

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
Until he has unconditional and unbiased love for all beings, man will not find peace.
Gautama Buddha
Speak the truth. Give whatever you can. Never be angry. These three steps will lead you Into the presence of the gods.
Gautama Buddha
Those who consider the inessential to be essential And see the essential as inessential Don't reach the essential, Living in the field of wrong intention
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
Mindfulness of the body leads to nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
Love lasts when the relationship comes first
Gautama Buddha
The wise man makes an island of himself that no flood can overwhelm.

Those who have failed to work toward the truth have missed the purpose of living.

When you have great joy, you will become Buddhas!
Gautama Buddha
