More quotes by Gautama Buddha
If you do not follow the right path, you will be lost.
Gautama Buddha
Those who act with few desires are calm, without worry or fear.
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
Born out of concern for all beings.
Gautama Buddha
Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again, and you will be filled with joy.
Gautama Buddha
Seeing the Way is like going into a dark room with a torch the darkness instantly departs, while the light alone remains. When the Way is attained and the truth is seen, ignorance vanishes and enlightenment abides forever.
Gautama Buddha
Remember, the greatest gift to give people your enlightenment, to share it. It has to be the greatest.
Gautama Buddha
Don't give way to heedlessness or to intimacy with sensual delight - for a heedful person, absorbed in jhana, attains an abundance of ease.
Gautama Buddha
There is nothing so disobedient as an undisciplined mind, and there is nothing so obedient as a disciplined mind.
Gautama Buddha
One way leads to acquisition, the other leads to nirvana. Realising this a monk should take no pleasure in the respect of others, but should devote himself to solitude.
Gautama Buddha
By your own efforts waken yourself, watch yourself. And live joyfully.
Gautama Buddha
He whose longing has been aroused for the indescribable, whose mind has been quickened by it, and whose thought is not attached to sensuality is truly called one who is bound upstream.
Gautama Buddha
Wakefulness is the way to life. The fool sleeps As if he were already dead, But the master is awake And he lives forever.
Gautama Buddha
The wind cannot overturn a mountain. Temptation cannot touch the man Who is awake, strong and humble, Who masters hiself and minds the law.
Gautama Buddha
It is our own thoughts that lead us into trouble, not other people.
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
You must love yourself before you love another. By accepting yourself and fully being what you are, your simple presence can make others happy You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love & affection.
Gautama Buddha
Find out for yourself what is truth, what is real. Discover that there are virtuous things and there are non-virtuous things. Once you have discovered for yourself give up the bad and embrace the good.
Gautama Buddha
When an evil-doer, seeing you practise goodness, comes and maliciously insults you, you should patiently endure it and not feel angry with him, for the evil-doer is insulting himself by trying to insult you.
Gautama Buddha
Drink deeply. Live in serenity and joy.
Gautama Buddha
