Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.

To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.

Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.

Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.


Re: Buddha quotes - Faw_Peter - 03-15-2009

An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea.

He who loves 50 people has 50 woes; he who loves no one has no woes.

Ambition is like love, impatient both of delays and rivals.

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.

Virtue is persecuted more by the wicked than it is loved by the good.

Friendship is the only cure for hatred, the only guarantee of peace.

As mortals, we're ruled by conditions, not by ourselves.

If we should be blessed by some great reward, such as fame or fortune, it's the fruit of a seed planted by us in the past.

Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.

Every human being is the author of his own health or disease.

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth

Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it.


Re: Buddha quotes - Benn - 04-10-2009

It is better to travel well than to arrive. On life's journey faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is the light by day and right mindfulness is the protection by night. If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him.

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become


Re: Buddha quotes - tricker - 04-23-2009

You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.


Re: Buddha quotes - Steven - 04-24-2009

The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.

The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart.
