A Stream Trickles Through A Forest

The smart and strong do not take revenge. They forgive with a smile.

I have always tried not to be irritated and to concede in a quarrel, and this always achieved pacification, and then in a calm state let the matter settle by itself.

QUOTES BY BUDDHA

Happiness - it's not a good combination of external circumstances. It's just your state of mind. Peace of mind is within you. Do not look for it outside. 

 Do not envy others' good qualities, but through admiration plant them in yourself.

 To enjoy good health, to create a true happiness for my family, to bring peace to all, one must first curb and control your own mind. If a man can control his mind, he can find the way to enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue , of course, will come to him. 

 The whole secret of existence is freedom from fear. Do not be afraid of what will happen to you, your future will not change, but now will become calm.

 Be gentle with the young, compassionate with the elderly, tolerant of the weak and erring. Once in your life , or you'll have every one of them.

 Words have power and can both destroy and heal. The right and kind words can change our world.

 Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment fully.

 Live in harmony. Do not look for it outside. Do not look outside of what can only be in your heart . Often we can look outside, only to distract themselves from the true reality. The truth is that harmony can only be found within ourselves. Harmony - is not a new job or a new marriage ; Harmony - is the world of the soul, and it starts with you. 

 Whoever does not understand the past, is forced to relive it again.

 Do not believe anything, no matter where you read it or who said it, even if I say it, if it is not consistent with your own reason and your own common sense.

Green Green Trees

Sometimes you want to hide from all , to go far away , where there is no one , quietly and calmly. ... and then come back with renewed vigor to live on!

Hide me in your lap
from the anxieties of life
safe, safe in your silent calm
away from all the worries
from the hectic animals, called humans

I come to you for peace
you do not talk
but I feel the serenity
one only feels in a mother's lap
rock me gently to sleep

May I call you mother?

Forest In The Autumn

One great sage once asked: - How did you get along with your wife of 40 years, and never quarrel?

 He replied: - Whenever she was upset and tried to quarrel, I kept quiet. And when I was upset and wanted to quarrel, she remained calm.
----------------------------------
They say nature is cruel
but one gaze at you 
and I ask myself
how can you be cruel?
you give me peace
you give me fresh air to breath
you soothe my eyes
you calm my mind
I fall into gentle slumber...

Setting Sunrays On Trees

I have always followed the rule: do not run, if you can stand; do not stand when you can sit; do not sit when you can lie down. 
WINSTON CHURCHILL

The truly powerful do not rush. They have indestructible peace of mind.
