Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Master Tรกnluรกn (476โ€“554 CE)

With light's cloud unobstructed like space, / thus is the Buddha also named Unobstructed Light. / As all with obstacles can receive his light's luster, / therefore prostrate to the difficult-to-conceive one. โ€” Master Tรกnluรกn (476โ€“554 CE)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Matthieu Ricard

We are very much like birds that have lived too long in a cage to which we return even when we get the chance to fly away. We have grown so accustomed to our faults that we can barely imagine what life would be like without them. The prospect of change makes us dizzy. โ€• Matthieu Ricard

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Seung Sahn (1927โ€“2004)

When you are able to stay perfectly clear by cutting off all thinking and yet not falling into a trance-like sleep, this is sitting. When inside and outside become one, and no circumstances can hinder you, this is Zen. โ€” Seung Sahn (1927โ€“2004)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Jetsun Milarepa (c. 1052โ€“c. 1135)

I remember appearances are examples of impermanence. I see sense pleasures to be like a mirage. I look at this life like a dream or illusion And cultivate compassion for those who donโ€™t realize this. โ€” Jetsun Milarepa (c. 1052โ€“c. 1135)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Patrul Rinpoche (1808โ€“1887)

I claim to be arousing bodhicitta, but still do not have it. I have trained in the path of the six perfections, but have remained selfish. Bless me and small-minded beings like me, That we may train in the sublime bodhicitta. โ€” Patrul Rinpoche (1808โ€“1887)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Ajahn Pasanno

Loving-kindness canโ€™t be separated from the Dhamma or anything else. Those qualities of letting go, non-contention: thatโ€™s where loving-kindness arises. When we let go of our moods, obsessions, worries, and fearsโ€”whatโ€™s left? Loving-kindness. โ€” Ajahn Pasanno
