One of his students asked Buddha, "Are you the messiah?" "No", answered Buddha.
"Then are you a healer?"
"No", Buddha replied.
"Then are you a teacher?" the student persisted.
"No, I am not a teacher."
"Then what are you?" asked the student, exasperated.
"I am awake," Buddha replied. (Buddha)
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.
The tongue like a sharp knife... Kills without drawing blood.
You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.
Have compassion for all beings, rich and poor alike; each has their suffering. Some suffer too much, others too little.
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.
However many holy words you read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act on upon them?
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful.

In Search of the 'TRUTH' through the 'eyes' of a non-Buddhist
This blog is specifically created as repository of 'anything & everything' on subjects/topics/issues related to in general in my research on Buddhism. Am I a Buddhist? No, I am not but one who finds this 'faith' intriguing, mind-boggling at times. As one who knows 'nothing' much about the subject, only skin-deep, it is extremely challenging as a study project. Blog postings reflect my research findings and what I am reading. Theory in the absence of practice is merely theorist who 'knows' but may not necessarily have the ability/capacity to 'act' (ie. do) what is preached. One must practice as preached. Reading alone acquires 'knowledge' but practice results in 'knowing' and attainment.
Come with me on 'my journey' of search, share my 'confusions' and 'enlightenments' along the way to "free one's mind" and "fulfill one's heart" with compassion and love for all living creatures.
Join me, let us not only 'talk-the-talk' or 'talk-the-walk' but 'walk-the-talk' and 'walk-the-walk'.
