Image
Ambition is like love, impatient both of delays and rivals.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Little by little a person becomes evil, as a water pot is filled by drops of water... Little by little a person becomes good, as a water pot is filled by drops of water.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Flower and thorn are in the same stem.
Gautama Buddha
Image
You are all the Buddha.
Gautama Buddha
Image
There are five things which no one is able to accomplish in this world: first, to cease growing old when he is growing old second, to cease being sick third, to cease dying fourth, to deny dissolution when there is dissolution fifth, to deny non-being.
Gautama Buddha
Image
You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
Gautama Buddha
Image
If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him.
Gautama Buddha
Image
If a man can control his body and mind and thereby refrains from eating animal flesh and wearing animal products, I say he will really be liberated.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Unkind people spread malicious tales, and well-intentioned people also censure but in either case the tranquil sage remains unconcerned. Nowhere is there to be found a disconcerted sage.
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is easy to see the faults of others... it is hard to see our own.
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Of all the worldly passions, lust is the most intense. All other worldly passions seem to follow in its train.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Here even the various mind-pleasing blossoming flowers, and attractive shining supreme golden houses, have no inherently existent maker at all. They are set up through the power of thought. Through the power of conceptuality the world is established
Gautama Buddha
Image
Drink deeply. Live in serenity and joy.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Like a beautiful flower, full of colour, but without scent, are wise words when spoken, but fruitless these words are when not carried out by the speaker.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The greatest impurity is ignorance. Free yourself from it. Be pure.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Mind is everything. What we think, we become.
Gautama Buddha
Image
People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Confusion conditions activity, which conditions consciousness, which conditions embodied personality, which conditions sensory experiences, which conditions impact, which conditions mood, which conditions craving, which conditions clinging, which conditions becoming, which conditions birth, which conditions aging and death.
Gautama Buddha
Image
You are all Buddhas. There is nothing you need to achieve. Just open your eyes.
Gautama Buddha
