All wrong-doing arises because of mind. If mind is transformed can wrong-doing remain?
Buddha
The foot feels the foot when it feels the ground.
Buddha
The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows.
Buddha
Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.
Buddha
You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.
Buddha
In a controversy the instant we feel anger we have already ceased striving for the truth, and have begun striving for ourselves.
Buddha
It is better to travel well than to arrive.
Buddha
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
Buddha
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
Buddha
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.
Buddha
Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.
Buddha
Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
Buddha
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
Buddha
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
Buddha
