There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
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.
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.
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.
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
