There is some wonderful wisdom in the sayings of the Buddha. What is your favorite Buddha Quote?
Here are a few of mine to get the ball rolling:
"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it."
- Kalama Sutta
"Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others."
- Dammapada
"Mind your thoughts, as they become your words. Mind your words, as they become your actions. Mind your actions, as they become you."
