Words of Wisdom

Buddhism is simply described by this quote:

"Every evil never doing
and in wholesomeness increasing
and one's mind well-purifying:
this is the Teaching of all Buddhas."

This quote, itself, includes all the teachings in Buddhism, and all the practices of Buddhism from Mahayana to Theravada, from Pure Land Buddhism to Zen Buddhism.
This quote can be used by any one or by any religion in the world as a base for good morality. This is because Buddhism teaches everyone to do good deeds and to avoid bad ones, to live in Peace and Harmony with all sentient beings, and to practice Compassion and Wisdom.
Regardless who you are, if you are doing good things that bring happiness to others and yourself as well as stop making any misery, and use the Wisdom to make wise decisions, you are practicing Buddha's Teachings.


Buddha has taught that all beings to have Buddha Nature in themselves.
And I think it is at somewhere in our hearts but we got deluded by some three malicious poisons; they are Desire, Hatred, and Ignorance.

When our actions, speeches, or thoughts were caused by those three poisons to arise, also somewhere in our hearts will tell us that:

"this is wrong; this is not the right thing to do",

...that is the Buddha Nature.

Due to one who has really strong bad karma,
the karma will overcome the Buddha Nature and control one's actions, speeches, and thoughts.
The person loses control of himself, and that is why there are so many violence in the world.



Sadhu! Sadhu! Sadhu!
