✨ Love is the seed of this abundant harvest of buddhahood. It is like the water which causes growth and expansion, And it ripens into the state of lasting enjoyment, Therefore at the outset I shall praise compassion! — Chandrakirti (c. 600–c. 650 CE) ✨

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: The practice of all the bodhisattvas is to let go of grasping / When encountering things one finds pleasant or attractive, / Considering them to be like rainbows in the summer skies— / Beautiful in appearance, yet in truth devoid of any substance. — Gyalsé Ngulchu Tokmé (1297–1371)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Although the spiritual journey is a homecoming of sorts, it is still indispensable to proceed on the path in the first place. We cannot say that since our authentic state is the enlightened mind of luminous bliss, we need not embark on any kind of spiritual journey. We cannot afford to think we are already there. — Traleg Kyabgon Rinpoche (1955–2012)

✨ Gazing intently into the empty sky, vision ceases; / Likewise, when mind gazes into mind itself, / The train of discursive and conceptual thought ends / And supreme enlightenment is gained. — Tilopa (c. 988–c. 1069) ✨

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Peacemaking requires selflessness. There is little we can do for peace as long as we think we are the only ones who know the way. Peacemaking requires wisdom. Peace is a path that is chosen consciously. It is not an aimless wandering, but a step-by-step journey. — Preah Maha Ghosananda (1913–2007)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: When the Buddha spoke about suffering, he meant that we have unsatisfactory experiences. Even the happiness we have does not last forever, and that situation is unsatisfactory. The causes of our problems lie not in the external nvironment  and those inhabiting it, but in our own mind. The disturbing attitudes and negative emotions, such as clinging attachment, anger, and ignorance are the real source of our unhappiness. — Ven. Thubten Chodron

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: True freedom is to be free from desire by recognizing it. Then, from where does desire arise? The root of desire is karma. When your karma comes into contact with an external situation, a feeling arises, and based on that feeling, a desire arises. Each person has different karma, so each person has different desires. — Ven. Pomnyun Sunim
