Quotations
Gautama Buddha
From craving is born grief, from craving is born fear. For one freed from craving there’s no grief – so how fear?

I reached in experience the nirvana which is unborn, unrivalled, secure from attachment, undecaying and unstained.

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.
