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?
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
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.
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.
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.
