Buddhism Quotes

There are techniques of Buddhism, such as meditation, that anyone can adopt. And, of course, there are Christian monks and nuns who already use Buddhist methods in order to develop their devotion, compassion, and ability to forgive Picture Quote #1

The way of presentation is different according to each religion. In theistic religions like Buddhism, Buddhist values are incorporated. In nontheistic religions, like some types of ancient Indian thought, the law of karma applies. If you do something good, you get a good result. Now, what we need is a way to educate nonbelievers. These nonbelievers may be critical of all religions, but they should be decent at heart Picture Quote #1

I think when religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism - as well as Christianity and Judaism - were founded, at that time societies were generally male-dominated. So, therefore this social notion also influenced religion Picture Quote #1

Ethics arises in the recognition of our obligation to care for others as beings, like us, exposed to mortality - that is, beings who need our help. Buddhism, not wrongly, extends this to ‘all sentient beings’ Picture Quote #1

I don’t know if there is really an objective truth about either. I liken this to what Buddhism says about the individual, that change starts with the individual. I think it is really about purifying your own actions, and I have seen that in my own life Picture Quote #1

When I was first introduced to Buddhism in a high school World Studies class, I dismissed it out of hand. This was during the hedonistic days of the late 60s, and this spiritual path seemed so grim with its concern about attachment and, apparently, anti-pleasure Picture Quote #1

Whether you call it Buddhism or another religion, self-discipline, that’s important. Self-discipline with awareness of consequences Picture Quote #1

A friend of mine told me a bunch of stuff on Buddhism and about Avicii being the lowest level of Buddhist hell, and it just sort of got stuck in my head. Later on when I went to setup a MySpace, I tried a bunch of names and they were all taken so I just kind of ended up with Avicii and then I got really attached to it Picture Quote #1

One of the happier ironies of recent history is that even as Tibet is being wiped off the map in Tibet itself, here it is in California, in Switzerland, in Japan. All over the world, Tibetan Buddhism is now part of the neighborhood. In 1968, there were two Tibetan Buddhist centers in the West. By 2000, there were 40 in New York alone Picture Quote #1

I started the Stress Reduction Clinic in 1979. The idea of bringing Buddhist meditation without the Buddhism into the mainstream of medicine was tantamount to the Visigoths being at the gates about to tear down the citadel of Western civilization Picture Quote #1

In the Buddhist scriptures, it said many births cause suffering, so Buddhism is not against family planning Picture Quote #1

I’ve been practicing Buddhism for a while. So, I call myself a Jew-Bu, because my tribe is still Jew. But my philosophy and my practice is really Buddhist Picture Quote #1

Buddhism helps people to overcome pain. The deepest pain that Chinese people feel now is the pain of separation from loved ones, one of the eight pains in Buddhism Picture Quote #1

I have always worked with energy. Everything is energy. Buddhism. Christ teachings. These are foundation stones for a spiritual life Picture Quote #1

There is no reason whatsoever to think that Buddhism can compete successfully with the relentless evangelizing of Christianity and Islam. Nor should it try to Picture Quote #1

Belief in heaven and hell is a big deal in Judaism , Christianity , and Islam , and some forms of doctrinaire Buddhism . For the rest of us it’s simply meaningless. We don’t live in order to die, we live in order to live Picture Quote #1

Every single one of the major world faiths, whether we’re talking about Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Darwinism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam, have all come to the conclusion that what holds us back from our better self is ego, selfishness, greed, unkindness, hatred. And it all springs from a sense of thwarted ego Picture Quote #1

I like to read about different religions - Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism Picture Quote #1

Compassion is the key in Islam and Buddhism and Judaism and Christianity. They are profoundly similar Picture Quote #1

I do regard Islam to be a religion of peace in the same sense as Christianity, Buddhism and Hinduism are Picture Quote #1

I realize that many elements of the Buddhist teaching can be found in Christianity, Judaism, Islam. I think if Buddhism can help, it is the concrete methods of practice Picture Quote #1

And yet when you take Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, whatever, their combined killings in the name of religion -- well, that would be zero Picture Quote #1

I believe that everybody has the right to believe what they want to believe and to knock somebody’s faith and religion is foolish, whatever it may be - Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism Picture Quote #1

This sounds really hokey, but I think Buddhism is the only religion that is genuinely peaceful, so I’d try to promote it in a contemporary society Picture Quote #1

The Dalai Lama, these days, encourages Westerners not to take up Buddhism, partly because he feels that our roots are deep in other traditions, and we should go deeper into our own traditions rather than just acquiring the surfaces of others Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked in the prison system, on death row and maximum security. I did that work for six years. I’ve worked with some of the most difficult people in our society. Buddhism was accessible and helpful for these individuals Picture Quote #1

I think about death a lot, I really do, because I can’t believe I won’t exist. It’s the ego isn’t it? I feel that I should retreat into a better form of Zen Buddhism than this kind of ego-dominated thing. But I don’t know, I mean, I want to come back as a tree but I suspect that it’s just not going to happen, is it? Picture Quote #1

I understand that words can mean different things to different people, and, further, that people can have different relationships with complex abstract entities such as Buddhism. To me, anyway, the entity in my life that conflicts with my creativity is Buddhism Picture Quote #1

It’s very difficult to stay angry when a room full of bald guys in orange robes start giggling. Buddhism Picture Quote #1

Buddhism - Tibetan Buddhism - teaches us many things, peace comes from within, we must be free ourselves from earthly desires Picture Quote #1
