Words of Wisdom from Buddha

1. Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

2. Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.

3. Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it.

4. Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

5. In the end, only three things matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.

6. When you realize how perfect everything is you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky.

7. All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.

8. As you walk and eat and travel, be where you are. Otherwise you will miss most of your life.

9. You are the community now. Be a lamp for yourselves. Be your own refugee. See for no other. All things must pass. Strive on diligently. Don't give up.

10. It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.

11. The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.

12. No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

13. However many holy words you may read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act upon them?

14. Physical charm attracts the eyes, goodness attracts the mind.

15. Doubt everything. Find your own light.
