Keeping away for all evil deeds, cultivation of life by doing good deeds and purification of mind from mental impunities.
Gautama BuddhaAs irrigators lead water where they want, as archers make their arrows straight, as carpenters carve wood, the wise shape their minds.
Gautama BuddhaDo not overlook tiny good actions, thinking they are of no benefit; even tiny drops of water in the end will fill a huge vessel. Do not overlook negative actions merely because they are small; however small a spark may be, it can burn down a haystack as big as a mountain.
Gautama BuddhaIn exactly the same way, ... scatter your body, your feeling, your perception, your predispositions, your discriminative consciousness, break them up, knock them down, cease to play with them, apply yourself to the destruction of craving for them. Verily, ... the extinction of craving is Nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
