With mindfulness, strive on.

Everything is based on mind, is led by mind, is fashioned by mind. If you speak and act with a polluted mind, suffering will follow you, as the wheels of the oxcart follow the footsteps of the ox.

Should you find a wise critic to point out your faults, follow him as you would a guide to hidden treasure.

Faith and prayer both are invisible, but they make impossible things possible.

There is no fear for one whose mind is not filled with desires.

To be angry is to let others' mistakes punish yourself.

Being deeply learned and skilled, being well trained and using well-spoken words: this is good luck.

Just as the great ocean has one taste, the taste of salt, so also this teaching and discipline has one taste, the taste of liberation.

#buddha #hindu #quotes #wisdom #spirituality #philosophy

Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.

#buddha #hindu #quotes #wisdom #spirituality #philosophy

We will develop and cultivate the liberation of mind by loving kindness, make it our vehicle, make it our basis, stabilize it, exercise ourselves in it, and fully perfect it.

Whatever is not yours: let go of it. Your letting go of it will be for your long-term happiness & benefit.
