You only lose what you cling to
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
The only stable state is the one in which all men are equal before the law.
An enemy to whom you show kindness becomes your friend
Be not entangled in this world of days and nights; Thou hast another time and space as well
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar
If you have a garden and a library you have everything you need
Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness
