Buddhist Wisdom

My teaching does not require anyone to become homeless or resign the world unless he wants to, but it does require everyone to free himself from the illusion that he is a permanent self and to act with integrity while giving up his craving for pleasure.-Majjhima Nikaya
Not up in the air,
nor in the middle of the sea, nor going into a cleft in the mountains —nowhere on earth— is a spot to be found where you could stay and not succumb to death. Dhammapada 128, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion.
If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
The Dalai Lama
What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy?
Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948), "Non-Violence in Peace and War"

THE MORE IT CHANGES...... THE MORE IT'S THE SAME!!!!! WAR !!
