From craving is born grief, from craving is born fear. For one freed from craving there’s no grief – so how fear?
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.
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.
There are ways from light into darkness and from darkness into light. There are ways, also, from the gloom into deeper darkness, and from the dawn into brighter light. The wise man will use the light he has to receive more light. He will constantly advance in the knowledge of truth.
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
