About Nagarjuna

Nāgārjuna (c. 150 – 250), sometimes called the "second Buddha" in Tibetan and East Asian Mahayana traditions, was an Indian Buddhist monk and philosopher. He systematized Mahayana Buddhist philosophy around the central concept of the emptiness (shunyata) of all existents (dharmas).

Additional quotes by Nagarjuna

If you desire ease, forsake learning.
If you desire learning, forsake ease.</br>How can the man at his ease acquire knowledge,
And how can the earnest student enjoy ease?

If you think you see both
Destruction and becoming,
Then you see destruction and becoming
Through impaired vision.

Without hope of reward
Provide help to others.
Bear suffering alone,
And share your pleasures with beggars.

Although you may spend your life killing, You will not exhaust all your foes. But if you quell your own anger, your real enemy will be slain. - Nagarjuna
