Gautama Buddha
Above the Intellect
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
Every morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most.
Teach this triple truth to all: A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world.
Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what hold you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom.
Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.
Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.
No one saves us but ourselves, no one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path but Buddhas clearly show the way.
Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love.
Neither fire, nor moisture, nor wind can destroy the blessing of good deeds, and blessings enlighten the whole world.
