More quotes by Gautama Buddha

To cease from evil, to do good, and to purify the mind yourself, this is the teaching of all the Buddhas.

Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.

Wisdom for the Soul: Five Millennia of Prescriptions for Spiritual Healing (2006)

As rain breaks through an ill-thatched house, passion will break through an unreflecting mind.

Health is the greatest gift, contentment is the greatest wealth, a trusted friend is the best relative, Nibbana is the greatest bliss.

Not by birth does one become an outcaste, not by birth does one become a brahman. By one's action one becomes an outcaste, by one's action one becomes a brahman.
