It is a man’s own mind, not his enemy or foe that lures him to evil ways.
Quotations
Gautama Buddha
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
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.
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy 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.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
