Household life is crowded and dusty; life gone forth is wide open... Suppose I shave off my hair and beard, put on the ochre robe, and go forth from the home life into homelessness.
Gautama BuddhaAs a water bead on a lotus leaf, as water on a red lily, does not adhere, so the sage does not adhere to the seen, the heard, or the sensed.
Gautama BuddhaFrom craving is born grief, from craving is born fear. For one freed from craving there's no grief- so how fear?
Gautama Buddha
