Mind Quotations Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment. Buddha The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly. Buddha The mind is everything. What you think you become. Buddha An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind. Buddha It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways. Buddha All wrong-doing arises because of mind. If mind is transformed can wrong-doing remain? Buddha Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind. Buddha To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear. Buddha To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him. Buddha 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
