If you don't disturb yourself, like a broken gong does not vibrate, then you have achieved nirvana. Irritability no longer exists for you.
Gautama BuddhaTo eat meat is just a habit after we were born. In fact, we are not born to eat meat.
Gautama BuddhaYou are your own master, you make your own future. Therefore discipline yourself as a horse-dealer trains a thoroughbred
Gautama BuddhaIf you sleep, Desire grows in you Like a vine in the forest. Like a monkey in the forest You jump from tree to tree, Never finding the fruit - From life to life, Never finding peace. If you are filled with desire Your sorrows swell Like the grass after the rain. But if you subdue desire Your sorrows shall fall from you Like drops of water from a lotus flower.
Gautama Buddha
