Buddha (Gautama Buddha)What is the appropriate behavior for a man or a woman in the midst of this world, where each person is clinging to his piece of debris? What's the proper salutation between people as they pass each other in this flood? What we think, we become. Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill. When one has the feeling of dislike for evil, when one feels tranquil, one finds pleasure in listening to good teachings; when one has these feelings and appreciates them, one is free of fear. Without health life is not life; it is only a state of langour and suffering - an image of death. Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others. |
