To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
Quotations
Gautama Buddha
The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If you speak or act with an evil thought, pain follows. If you speak or act with a pure thought, happiness 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.
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.
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.
