All of you knowing now, Tthat ...

All of you knowing now, Tthat the Buddhas, the Teachers of the Ages, In accord with what is peculiarly appropriate, have recourse to expedient devices, Need have no more doubts or uncertainties. Your hearts shall give rise to great joy, Since you know that you yourselves Shall become Buddhas.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

And he who has considered all ...

And he who has considered all the contrasts on this earth, and is no more disturbed by anything whatever in the world, the Peaceful One, freed from rage, from sorrow, and from longing, he has passed beyond birth and decay.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

And for a disciple thus freed,...

And for a disciple thus freed, in whose heart dwells peace, there is nothing to be added to what has been done, and naught more remains for him to do. Just as a rock of one solid mass remains unshaken by the wind, even so, neither forms, nor sounds, nor odors, nor tastes, nor contacts of any kind, neither the desired, nor the undesired, can cause such an one to waver. Steadfast is his mind, gained is deliverance.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

Better than a meaningless stor...

Better than a meaningless story of a thousand words is a single word of deep meaning which, when heard, produces peace.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

Just as gold is burnt, cut and...

Just as gold is burnt, cut and rubbed, Examine my words carefully and Do not accept them simply out of respect

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

The mind is pure and luminous ...

The mind is pure and luminous by nature. It is defiled only by adventitious thoughts and emotions

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

As the bee collects nectar and...

As the bee collects nectar and departs without injuring the flower, or its color or fragrance, so let the sage dwell on earth.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

Delight in meditation and soli...

Delight in meditation and solitude. Compose yourself, be happy. You are a seeker.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

Happiness or sorrow- whatever ...

Happiness or sorrow- whatever befalls you, walk on untouched, unattached.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

The four catagories of existan...

The four catagories of existance, non-existance, both existance and non-existance, and neither existance nor non-existance, are spiderwebs among spiderwebs which can never take hold of the enormous bird of reality

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

After 48 years, I have said no...

After 48 years, I have said nothing.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

What I know is like the leaves...

What I know is like the leaves on that tree; what I teach is only a small part. But I offer it to all with an open hand. What do I not teach? Whatever is fascinating to discuss, divides people against each other, but has no bearing on putting an end to sorrow. What do I teach? Only what is necessary to take you to the other shore.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

The worlds originate so that t...

The worlds originate so that truth may come and dwell therein.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

Those who awaken never rest in...

Those who awaken never rest in one place. Like swans, they rise and leave the lake. On the air they rise and fly an invisible course. Their food is knowledge. They live on emptiness. They have seen how to break free. Who can follow them?

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

The right time to show your go...

The right time to show your good character is when you are pestered by someone weaker than you.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

Do not accept what you hear by...

Do not accept what you hear by report, do not accept tradition, do not accept a statement because it is found in our books, nor because it is in accord with your belief, nor because it is the saying of your teacher. Be lamps unto yourselves. Those who, either now or after I am dead, shall rely upon themselves only and not look for assistance to anyone besides themselves, it is they who shall reach the topmost height.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

When wishes are few, the heart...

When wishes are few, the heart is happy. When craving ends, there is peace.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

As a lotus flower is born in w...

As a lotus flower is born in water, grows in water and rises out of water to stand above it unsoiled, so I, born in the world, raised in the world having overcome the world, live unsoiled by the world

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

It is our very search for perfection outside of ourselves that causes suffering.

Gautama Buddha 1201 quotes

Monks, when ignorance is aband...

Monks, when ignorance is abandoned, and knowledge arises in the monk, with the ending of ignorance and the arising of knowledge he clings neither to sense-pleasures, nor does he cling to views, nor to precepts and vows, nor to a Self-doctrine. Not clinking, he is not disturbed; not disturbed, he attains individually nibbana.
