Sublime Sayings Of The Buddha
Sublime Sayings Of The Buddha
1 When faced with the vicissitudes of life,
one's mind remains unshaken,
sorrowless, stainless, secure;
this is the greatest Blessing.
Sutta Nipāta 2.271
2 When past conditioning is releasedand no fresh one produced,the mind no longer seeks for future birth.

sorrowless, stainless, secure;
this is the greatest Blessing.
Sutta Nipāta 2.271
2 When past conditioning is releasedand no fresh one produced,the mind no longer seeks for future birth.
The seed consumed, cravings no more arise.
Such-minded wise ones cease like [the flame of] this lamp.
Sutta Nipāta 2.238
3 Those to whom the Dhamma is clearare not led into other doctrines;
3 Those to whom the Dhamma is clearare not led into other doctrines;
perfectly enlightened with perfect knowledge,
they walk evenly over the uneven.

START NOW!
Starting is the key to all success.
Beginning something new is what people fear most. Nothing will ever be attempted if you wait to overcome all the possible objections.
The great thing is the start, to see an opportunity for service and to start doing it.
The reason why so little is done, is generally because so little is attempted.
You will succeed if you can get up the courage to begin. T
he only true failure lies in the failure to start.
The courage to begin separates dreamers from achievers.

Seeing It as it is
Seeing It As It IsNo matter what you believe, it doesn't change the facts.
If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted as true is really true, there would be little hope of advancement in the world. The facts do not cease to exist because you ignore them.
If fifty-million people say a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing. Successful people are realistic.
They are not trapped by false appearances.
They see the world as it is.
The truth is what it is.
It is neither good nor bad.
It is reality.
Tailor your concepts to fit reality, instead of trying to stuff reality into your concepts.
See it like it is, and you're on your way to success.
