Quotations
Gautama Buddha
I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
Be determined. The Tempter masters the lazy and irresolute man who dwells on the attractive side of things, ungoverned in his senses, and unrestrained in his food, like the wind overcomes a rotten tree.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If you speak or act with an evil thought, pain follows. If you speak or act with a pure thought, happiness follows, like a shadow that never leaves.
Develop a mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect poise of mind: follow calmness, the absence of pride.
