SAYINGS OF HE BUDDHA

The Highest Gift

The gift of Truth excels all other gifts.

Accept Truth

If you find truth in any religion, accept that truth!

See The Buddha

One who sees my teachings sees me.

Serve The Buddha

One who serves the sick serves me.

The External Law

In this world hatred can never be appeased by

hatred. Hatred can only be appeased by love. This is

the eternal law.

World Within You

In this very one fathom long body along with

perception and thoughts, I proclaim the world, the

origin of the world, the cessation of the world, and

the path leading to the end of the world.

Mind Is The Forerunner

By mind the world is led, by the mind the world is

drawn. And all men own the sovereignity of mind.

Two Different Paths

One is the road that leads to worldly gain, one leads

to deathlessness – Eternal Bliss.

Everything Is Impermanent

All conditioned things are impermanent. When one

see this in Wisdom, then one becomes dispassionate

towards the painful.

Ignorance

It is because you and I do not understand and

comprehend the four noble truths that we have to

run this long and weary round of existence-

Samsara.

Lucky Day

Fools wait for a lucky day, but everyday is a lucky

day for an industrious man.

Worldly Ties

The secret of happiness lies in mind’s release from

worldly ties.

Insufficient Knowledge

The man of little learning grows old like the ox.

His body grows but wisdom grows not.

Life Is Dear To All

All tremble at the rod. All fear death. Feeling for

others as for oneself, one should neither kill nor

cause to kill.

A Religion To Practise

This is a religion for one to come and practise but

not just to come and believe.

Evil-Doer Grieves

The evil-doer grieves here, he grieves hereafter. He

grieves in both worlds. He grieves, he perishes with

his own impure deed.

Vigilance and Negligence

Vigilance is the path to deathlessness. Negligence is

the path to death. The vigilant do not die. The

negligent are as if dead already.
