Teaching Of The Buddha (9)

It is good to see the Noble Ones (ariyas); to live with them is always a pleasure;
not seeing fools is also always a pleasure.

Teaching Of The Buddha (8)

He who destroys life, tells lies, takes what is not given him, commits adultery and takes intoxicating drinks, digs up his own roots even in this very life. Know this, O man! Not restraining oneself is evil; do not let greed and ill will subject you to prolonged misery.

Teaching Of The Buddha ( 7 )

Do not associate with those who are dear, and never with those who are not dear to you: not seeing the dear ones is painful, and seeing those who are not dear to you is also painful.
Therefore, one should hold nothing dear; separation from the loved ones is painful; there are no fetters for those who do not love or hate.

Teaching Of The Buddha (6)

Guard against evil deeds, control your body. Giving up evil deeds, cultivate good deeds. Guard against evil speech,
control your speech. Giving up evil speech, cultivate good speech.Guard against evil thoughts control your mind.Giving up evil thoughts, cultivate good thoughts. The wise are controlled indeed, they are controlled in speech, they are controlled in thought. Indeed, they are perfectly self-controlled.

Teaching Of The Buddha (5)

Of paths, the path of Eight Constituents is the noblest; of truths, the Four Noble Truths are the noblest; of the dhammas, the absence of craving (ie.,Nibbana) is the noblest; of the two-legged beings, the All-seeing Buddha is the noblest. This is the only path, and there is none other for the purity of vision. Follow this path; it will bewilder Mara.
Following this Path, you will make an end of dukkha. having myself known the Path which can lead to the removal of the thorns of moral defilements, I have shown you the Path. You yourselves should make the effort; the Tathagatas (Buddhas) can only show the way. Those who practise the Tranquillity and Insight Meditation are freed from the bond of Mara.

Teaching Of The Buddha (4)

Conquer the angry one by not getting angry (i.e., by loving-kindness); conquer the wicked by goodness; conquer the stingy by generosity, and the liar by speaking the truth.
One should speak the truth, one should not yield to anger, one should give when asked even if it is only a little. By means of these three, one may go to the world of the devas.

Teaching Of The Buddha (3)

"All conditioned phenomena are impermanent"; when one sees this with Insight-wisdom, one becomes weary of dukkha (i.e., the khandhas). This is the path to Purity. "All conditioned phenomena are dukkha"; when one sees this with Insight-wisdom, one becomes weary of dukkha (i.e., the khandhas). This is the Path to purity. "All phenomena (dhammas) are without Self"; when one sees this with Insight-wisdom, one becomes weary of dukkha (i.e., the khandhas). This is the Path to Purity.

Teaching Of The Buddha (2)

• 
  

"Choice "
We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.
Speak or act with an impure mind
and trouble will follow you
As the wheel follows the ox that draws the cart.
We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts
With our thoughts we make the world.
Speak or act with a pure mind
and happiness will follow you
As your shadow, unshakable.
