Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful.
Quotations
Gautama Buddha
There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
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.
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.
From craving is born grief, from craving is born fear. For one freed from craving there’s no grief – so how fear?
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.
