Words of the Buddha

Published 5:30 am Thursday, September 8, 2022

Mind precedes all phenomena, mind matters most, everything is mind-made.

If with an impure mind one performs any action of speech or body, then suffering will follow that person as the cartwheel follows the foot of the draught animal.

Mind precedes all phenomena, mind matters most, everything is mind-made.

If with a pure mind one performs any action of speech or body, then happiness will follow that person as a shadow that never departs.
