The wise ones fashioned speech with their thought, sifting it as grain is sifted through a sieve.
Gautama BuddhaOf all footprints, that of the elephant is supreme. Similarly, of all mindfulness meditations, that on death is supreme.
Gautama BuddhaAs solid rock remains unmoved by the wind, so the wise remain unmoved by blame and praise.
Gautama BuddhaLittle by little a person becomes evil, as a water pot is filled by drops of water... Little by little a person becomes good, as a water pot is filled by drops of water.
Gautama BuddhaThere is no fire like greed, No crime like hatred, No sorrow like separation, No sickness like hunger of heart, And no joy like the joy of freedom. Health, contentment and trust Are your greatest possessions, And freedom your greatest joy. Look within. Be still. Free from fear and attachment, Know the sweet joy of living in the way.
Gautama Buddha
