“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.” Quote by Buddha
“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.”
Buddha
The Buddha (c. 5th to 4th century BCE) also known as Siddhartha Gotama or Siddhārtha Gautama was a philosopher, mendicant, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who lived in Ancient India. He is revered as the founder of the world religion of Buddhism, and worshiped by most Buddhist schools as the Enlightened One who has transcended Karma and escaped the cycle of birth and rebirth. He taught for around 45 years and built a large following, both monastic and lay. His teaching is based on his insight into duḥkha (typically translated as “suffering”) and the end of dukkha – the state called Nibbāna or Nirvana.
“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.”

“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.”
Buddha
“Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.”
Buddha
“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.”
