One is not a great one because one defeats or harms other living beings. One is so called because one refrains from defeating or harming other living beings.
Gautama BuddhaGreed is an imperfection that defiles the mind; hate is an imperfection that defiles the mind; delusion is an imperfection that defiles the mind.
Gautama BuddhaFor one who is a learner and who has not yet come to master their mind, but who dwells aspiring for peace from that which binds, making it a matter concerning himself, I know of no other thing as helpful as giving close attention to the mind.
Gautama Buddha
