Without approval and without scorn, but carefully studying the sentences word by word, one should trace them in the Discourses and verify them by the Discipline. If they are neither traceable in the Discourses nor verifiable by the Discipline, one must conclude thus: 'Certainly, this is not the Blessed One's utterance; this has been misunderstood by that bhikkhu - or by that community, or by those elders, or by that elder.' In that way, bhikkhus, you should reject it.
Gautama BuddhaFor those who are ready the door to the deathless state is open. If you have ears give up the conditions that bind you and enter in.
Gautama BuddhaIf a man does what is good, let him do it again; let him delight in it; happiness is the outcome of good.
Gautama Buddha
