One who previously made bad karma, but who reforms and creates good karma, brightens the world like the moon appearing from behind a cloud.
Gautama BuddhaAs an elephant in the battlefield withstands arrows shot from bows all around, even so shall I endure abuse.
Gautama BuddhaAll wrong-doing arises because of mind. If mind is transformed can wrong-doing remain?
Gautama BuddhaNot by mere eloquence, nor by handsome appearance, does a man become good-natured, should he be jealous, selfish and deceitful.
Gautama BuddhaThe one who wanders independent in the world, free from opinions and viewpoints, does not grasp them and enter into disputations and arguments. As the lotus rises on its stalk unsoiled by the mud and the water, so the wise one speaks of peace and is unstained by the opinions of the world.
Gautama Buddha
