More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Freed by full realization and at peace, the mind of such a man is at peace, and his speech and action peaceful. He has no need for faith who knows the uncreated, who has cut off rebirth, who has destroyed any opportunity for good or evil, and cast away all desire. He is indeed the ultimate man.
Gautama Buddha
Do not overlook tiny good actions, thinking they are of no benefit even tiny drops of water in the end will fill a huge vessel. Do not overlook negative actions merely because they are small however small a spark may be, it can burn down a haystack as big as a mountain.
Gautama Buddha
Love is a fleeting emotion, to reach true nirvana one must know themselves and forsake love, for it breeds contempt
Gautama Buddha
The greatest impurity is ignorance. Free yourself from it. Be pure.
Gautama Buddha
Mankind have love, animals have affection. The harmonious and beautiful world is revealed.
Gautama Buddha
Of what I know, I have told you only a little. Why have I not told you the rest? Because it would not lead you to Nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
If a viper lives in your room and you wish to have a peaceful sleep, you must first chase it out.
Gautama Buddha
Awake. Be the witness of your thoughts. The elephant hauls himself from the mud. In the same way drag yourself out of your sloth.
Gautama Buddha
There have been many Buddhas before me and will be many Buddhas in the future.
Gautama Buddha
Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.
Gautama Buddha
Our good and bad deeds follow us almost like a shadow.
Gautama Buddha
Look not for refuge to anyone beside yourself. Heed fast to the truth as a lamp.
Gautama Buddha
Many do not realize that we here must die. For those who realize this, quarrels end.
Gautama Buddha
One should not kill a living being, nor cause it to be killed, nor should one incite another to kill. Do not injure any being, either strong or weak, in the world.
Gautama Buddha
Things are not what they appear to be: nor are they otherwise.
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
As a single drop of water fills a bucket, so do small deeds of evil as a single drop of water fills a bucket, so do small deeds of good.
Gautama Buddha
Temperance is a tree which as for its root very little contentment, and for its fruit calm and peace.
Gautama Buddha
Let the disciple cultivate love without measure towards all beings. Let him cultivate towards the whole world, above, below, around, a heart of love unstinted....For in all the world this state of heart is best.
Gautama Buddha
To support mother and father, to cherish wife and children, and to be engaged in peaceful occupation - this is the greatest blessing.
Gautama Buddha
