Our body is precious. It is our vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care.
Quotations
Gautama Buddha
Be determined. The Tempter masters the lazy and irresolute man who dwells on the attractive side of things, ungoverned in his senses, and unrestrained in his food, like the wind overcomes a rotten tree.
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.
From craving is born grief, from craving is born fear. For one freed from craving there’s no grief – so how fear?
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
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.
