Do not close your eyes before suffering. Find ways to be with those who are suffering by all means, Including personal contact and visits, images, sound. By such means, awaken yourself and others to the reality of suffering in the world.
Gautama BuddhaEnnui has made more gamblers than avarice, more drunkards than thirst, and perhaps as many suicides as despair.
Gautama BuddhaThose who really seek the path to Enlightenment dictate terms to their mind. Then they proceed with strong determination.
Gautama BuddhaLet your love flow outward through the universe, To its height, its depth, its broad extent, A limitless love, without hatred or enmity. Then as you stand or walk, Sit or lie down, As long as you are awake, Strive for this with a one-pointed mind; Your life will bring heaven to earth.
Gautama Buddha
