(They) were responsible for spreading the Buddhist religion throughout India and East Asia.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
You yourself must make an effort. Buddhas are only show the way. The thoughtful who enter the way are freed from the bondage of defilements.
Gautama Buddha
Image
One is not called noble who harms living beings. By not harming living beings one is called noble.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Winter always turns into Spring.
Gautama Buddha
Image
To know and not to use is not yet to know!
Gautama Buddha

Know what you do not know.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Reverence, humility, contentment, gratitude and hearing the good Dhamma, this is the best good luck.
Gautama Buddha
Image
May all that have life be delivered from suffering.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Thus shall ye think of all this fleeting world: As star at dawn, a bubble in a stream A flash of lightning in a summer cloud A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream
Gautama Buddha
Image
I teach about suffering and the way to end it
Gautama Buddha
Image
Cultivation of meditative stability alone, will not destroy the discrimination of inherent existence. Afflictive emotions can return, making all sorts of disturbances
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
The fool who thinks he is wise is just a fool. The fool who knows he is a fool is wise indeed.
Gautama Buddha
Image
There is no fire like passion, there is no shark like hatred, there is no snare like folly, there is no torrent like greed.
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is because I perceive the danger in the practice of mystic wonders, that I loath, abhor, and am ashamed thereof.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
You must use the hook of precepts to quickly remove it.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Destroy the man of wicked thoughts, Like a bamboo-tree with its fruit.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The Buddhas do but tell the way it is for you to swelter at the task.
Gautama Buddha
