You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection
Quotations
Gautama Buddha
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship… To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.
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.
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.
I reached in experience the nirvana which is unborn, unrivalled, secure from attachment, undecaying and unstained. This condition is indeed reached by me - deep, difficult to see, difficult to understand, tranquil, excellent, beyond the reach of mere logic, subtle, and to be realised only by the wise.
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
From craving is born grief, from craving is born fear. For one freed from craving there’s no grief – so how fear?
