The Teachings of Buddha

When the senses touch sense objects and the thoughts touch thought objects, the fires of lust and desire are kindled. Your ears hear praises of yourselves and then your thoughts think of self importance and you are fearful lest you lose the self-importance. You forget that this self is not the true self of you which is universal and deathless. - Unknown

One must not accept my teachings from reverence, but first try them as gold is tried by fire. - The Buddha

It is better to travel well than to arrive. - Buddha

The good renounce everything. The pure don’t babble about sensual desires. Whether touched by pleasure or pain, the wise show no change of temper. - The Buddha

Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow come and go like the wind. To be happy, rest like a giant tree in the midst of them all. - Buddha

When one is overcome by this wretched, clinging desire in the world, one’s sorrows increase like grass growing up after a lot of rain. - The Buddha

Just as the bee takes the nectar and leaves without damaging the color or scent of the flowers, so should the sage act in a village. - The Buddha

Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it. - The Buddha

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without. - The Buddha
