Buddha on rääkinud

Järgnevad Buddha targad sõnad, mille olen kunagi teiste paljude seast välja valinud. Loodan, et teie leiate neist ka midagi. So, without further ado:

THE WORDS OF TRUTH

Selections from the Dhammapada
5
Hatred is never appeased by hatred in this world; it is appeased by love. This is an eternal Law.

24
Whosoever is energetic, mindful, pure in conduct, discriminating, self-restrained, right-living, vigilant, his fame steadily increases.

50
One should not pry into the faults of others, into things done and left undone by others. One should rather consider what by oneself is done and left undone.

67
The deed is not well done, which one regrets when it is done and the result of which one experiences weeping with a tearful face.

69
The fool thinks an evil deed as sweet as honey, so long as it does not ripen (does not produce results). But when it ripends, the fool comes to grief.

81
Even as a solid rock is unshaken by the wind, so are the wise unshaken by praise or blame.

103
One may conquer in battle a thousand times a thousand men, yet he is the best of conquerors who conquers himself.

116
Make haste in doing good; restrain your mind from evil. Whosoever is slow in doing good, his mind delights in evil.

122
Do not think lightly of good, saying: „It will not come to me“. Even as a water-pot is filled by the falling of drops, so the wise man, gathering it drop by drop, fills himself with good.

125
Whosoever offends an innocent person, pure and guiltless, his evil comes back on that fools himself like fine dust thrown against the wind.

197
Happy indeed we live without hate among the hateful. We live free from hatred amidst hateful men.

215
From lust arises grief; from lust arises fear. For him who is free from lust there is no grief, much less fear.

223
Conquer anger by love, evil by good; conquer the miser with liberality, and the liar with truth.
