Train your eyes and ears; train your nose and tongue. The senses are good friends when they are trained. Train your body in deeds, train your tongue in words, train your mind in thoughts. This training will take you beyond sorrow.

As I am, so are these. As are these, so am I. Drawing the parallel to yourself, neither kill nor get others to kill.

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

All tremble at violence; all fear death. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.

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

The instant we feel anger we have already ceased striving for the truth, and have begun striving for ourselves.

As I am, so are these. As are these, so am I. Drawing the parallel to yourself, neither kill nor get others to kill.

Be truthful; do not yield to anger. Give freely, even if you have but little. The gods will bless you.

Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again, and you will be filled with joy.

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

Hatred is never appeased by hatred in this world. By non-hatred alone is hatred appeased. This is a law eternal.
