If with an impure mind a person speaks or acts suffering follows him like the wheel that follows the foot of the ox.
Gautama BuddhaWhen one sees that everything exists as an illusion, one can live in a higher sphere than ordinary man.
Gautama BuddhaThere's a treasury full of jade and jewels; It is in you. Don't go searching far from home for it-it's here.
Gautama BuddhaBe lamps unto yourselves. Be refuges unto yourselves. Take yourself no external refuge. Hold fast to the truth as a lamp. Hold fast to the truth as a refuge. Look not for a refuge in anyone besides yourselves. And those, Ananda, who either now or after I am dead, Shall be a lamp unto themselves, Shall betake themselves as no external refuge, But holding fast to the truth as their lamp, Holding fast to the truth as their refuge, Shall not look for refuge to anyone else besides themselves, It is they who shall reach to the very topmost height; But they must be anxious to learn.
Gautama Buddha
