Buddhist sayings

On life's journey Faith is nourishment,
Virtuous deeds are a shelter,
Wisdom is the light by day and
Right mindfulness is the protection by night.

If a man lives a pure life nothing can destroy him;
If he has conquered greed nothing can limit his freedom.

We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts, we make our world.

Pay no attention to the faults of others,
things done or left undone by others.
Consider only what by oneself is done or left undone.

Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle,
and the life of the candle will not be shortened.
Happiness never decreases by being shared.
