  1. I will never understand how people who call themselves #Buddhist can eat “animal products”, as these clearly depend on #imprisonment, #exploitation, #abuse, and #murder of nonhuman beings – I call them #Navelgaze_Buddhists or #Wellness_Buddhists.

    The first two verses from Chapter 10, “Violence” of the #Dhammapada:

    129. All tremble at violence; all fear death. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.

    130. All tremble at violence; life is dear to all. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.

  6. "Na paresam vilomani
    na paresam katakatam
    attanova avekkheyya
    katani akatani ca."

    ( #Dhammapada , Paveyya ajivaka Vatthu)

    One should not consider the faults of others, nor their doing or not doing good or bad deeds.
    One should consider only whether one has done or not done good or bad deeds.

  8. "Saccaṁ bhaṇe, na kujjheyya,
    dajjāppasmim-pi yācito,
    etehi tīhi ṭhānehi
    gacche devāna’ santike."

    (Dhammapada, Mahamoggallanapanha Vatthu)

    One should utter the truth.
    One should not be angry.
    One should give even
    from a scanty store to him who asks.
    Along these three paths,
    one may go to the presence of the gods.

  12. "Yathāpi mūle anupaddave daḷhe,
    chinnopi rukkho punareva rūhati;
    Evampi taṇhānusaye anūhate,
    nibbattatī dukkhamidaṃ punappunaṃ."

    (Dhammapada, Tanhavagga)

    As roots remain undamaged and strong,
    Even a tree, when cut down grows again,
    In the same way, as long as the latent tendency of craving is not rooted out,
    Dukkha (of birth, ageing, and death) will spring up again and again.

  15. "Ye dhammā hetuppabhavā, tesaṃ hetuṃ tathāgato āha,
    tesañca yo nirodho, evaṃvādī mahāsamaṇo’ti."

    (Sāriputtattheraapadāna)

    Of those states that have arisen from a cause, their cause is explained by the Tathāgata,
    and the cessation of those; this is what the great Sramana teaches.

  17. "Natthi ragasamo aggi
    natthi dosasamo kali
    natthi khandhasama dukkha
    natthi santiparam sukham."

    ( #Dhammapada , Sukhavagga)

    There is no fire like passion; there is no evil like hatred; there is no ill like (the burden of) khandhas; there is no bliss that surpasses the Perfect Peace (Nibbana).

  19. "Atta hi attano natho
    ko hi natho paro siya
    attana hi sudantena
    natham labhati dullabham."

    ( #Dhammapada , Athma / Atta Vagga )

    One indeed is one's own refuge; how can others be a refuge to one? With oneself thoroughly tamed, one can attain a refuge (Arahatta Phala), which is so difficult to attain.

  21. "Asāre sāramatino
    sāre casāradassino
    Te sāram nadhigacchanti
    micchā sankappagocarā"

    ( #Dhammapada Yamaka Vagga )

    The unessential they imagine as essential,
    In the essential, they see as unessential,
    they never realise the essence,
    who entertain such wrong thoughts.
