Best Life Quotes By Buddha

Gautama Buddha also is known as Siddhartha Gautama. With the help of Siddhartha Gautama’s teachings, Buddhism takes place. Gautama Buddha was born in Lumbini. Siddhartha Gautama realizes that meditation is the only path to awakening. Gautama decides to live his life as a Yogi. Gautama starts seated under a Pipal tree which is known as Bodhi Tree. Gautama meditation regular 49 days, to have attained Enlightenment.

Gautama Buddha, also known as Shakyamuni Buddha or Siddhartha Buddha or Buddha founded Buddhism. He was one of the many Sramana philosophers of his time. According to the Buddhist tradition, Buddha was born in Lumbini, now in Nepal. He was brought up by his mother’s younger sister and his father wanted him to be a great king. It is said that his father shielded him from religious teachings and human suffering.

Buddha was married to Yashodhara at the age of 16 and they both had a son named Rahula. When he was 29; he saw an old man despite his father’s efforts to hide from him the aged, suffering old people. This depressed him and he quit his palace for the life of a mendicant. According to the early Buddhist texts, when Buddha realized that meditative dhyana was the right path to awakening. Several life lessons and teachings have been provided by Buddha in his biographies and Buddhist texts.

One of my all-time favorite Buddha quotes is, “As you walk, eat, and travel, be where you are. Otherwise, you will miss most of your life”. This is quite true in all aspects of our life. Be it something that you are doing, eating, or be it someplace you are traveling to; we can never experience life to its best if we are not completely present
there, at that particular moment. We need to be mentally and physically present to see life happening. That is how we will never miss a single bit of our life.

Buddha has taught us so many life lessons; each lesson is a gem and gives us an opportunity to understand the world and make it a better place. His teachings and ideologies help us walking on this path of life and helping us throughout the journey. Buddha once said, “You only lose what you cling to”. It is very difficult to not get used to the things that we have in our life; the things that help us grow and be what we are. And we can only lose those things that we cling on to; how can someone lose something that he never had. To live a happy and content life; we must not forget the lessons that Buddha have taught us, they will help us face the hardships of life with a smile on our face and faith in our heart because, in the end, it is the faith that matters.

From that time Gautama was known as Lord Buddha. Buddha changes people like Angulimala, Cannibals such as Alavaka. Buddha totally changed the lives of many who believed in him. Buddha believed that by meditation everyone can get to awakening. Gautam Buddha is also known for giving the best quotes about human life. He gave so many spiritual and inspirational quotes to this world. Which is really helpful for those who follow them in their life.
