Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart follow the oxen that draws it.
Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.

Additional quotes by The Buddha

Szerzetesek, vannak tanulatlan, közönséges emberek, akik nem gondolnak a nemes dolgokkal, nem hallottak a nemes tanról, járatlanok a nemes tanban; nem gondolnak az igaz emberekkel, nem hallottak az igaz emberek viselkedéséről, járatlanok az igaz ember viselkedésében. Az ilyenek nem ismerik fel a fontos tanokat, nem ismerik fel a fölösleges tanokat. Mivel nem ismerik fel a fontos tanokat, és nem ismerik fel a fölösleges tanokat, a fölösleges tanokkal foglalkoznak, és a fontos tanokkal nem foglalkoznak.

Melyek azok a fölösleges tanok, szerzetesek, amelyekkel foglalkoznak? Ha egy tannal való foglalkozás következtében feltámad a még fel nem támadt örömvágy indulata, a már feltámadt örömvágy indulata pedig erősödik, feltámad a még fel nem támadt létezni vágyás indulata, a már feltámadt létezni vágyás indulata pedig erősödik, feltámad a még fel nem támadt balgaság indulata, a már feltámadt balgaság indulata pedig erősödik, az ilyen tan fölösleges, és ők ezzel foglalkoznak.

We live in illusion and the appearance of things. There is a reality. We are that reality. When you understand this, you see that you are nothing, and being nothing, you are everything. That is all.
