To conquer oneself is a greater task than conquering others
Shakyamuni philosopher, teacher and religious leader on whose teachings Buddhism was founded.
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without
Your body is precious. It is our vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care
Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die
Avoid evil deeds as a man who loves life avoids poison
To abstain from lying is essentially wholesome
The tongue like a sharp knife… Kills without drawing blood
I know you're tired but come, this is the way
Integrity is doing the right thing when nobody’s watching, and doing as you say you would do
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
The truth springs from arguments amongst friends
We are not makers of history, We are made by history
