Dhammapada
A famous collection of sayings, an important part of the Buddhist canon, meaning “Path of Virtue” (the second translation of the name is “Foundation of Law”), created in the 4th or 3rd century.
BC e. The Dhammapada sets out the basic ethical principles of early Buddhism. ABOUT! We live very happily, non-hostile among the hostile; We, the non-hostiles, live among hostile people. ABOUT! We live very happily, the non-sick among the sick; We, the non-sick, live among sick people. ABOUT! We live very happily, not languishing among those who are languishing; We, the non-languishing ones, live among languishing people. ABOUT! We live very happily, although we have nothing. We will feed on joy like shining gods.
Until a man’s desire for a woman is eradicated, even the slightest, his mind is tied like a calf sucking its mother’s milk.
The well spoken word of the person who follows it is fruitful, like a beautiful flower with a pleasant color and fragrant scent.
One useful word, upon hearing which one becomes calm, is better than a thousand speeches made up of useless words.
Victory breeds hatred; the vanquished live in sorrow. The calm person lives in happiness, having given up both victories and defeats.
Few people reach the opposite shore. The rest of the people are just fussing about on the local shore.
A well-spoken word from a person who does not follow it is as fruitless as a beautiful flower with a pleasant color but no fragrance.
Just as a tree, although torn out, continues to grow if its root is intact and strong, so suffering is born again and again if the tendency to desire is not eradicated.
People, driven by desire, run around like a frightened hare runs. Bound by shackles and bonds, they return to suffering again and again over a long period of time.
You are now like a withered leaf, and the messengers of Yama have come for you.
And you are standing on the threshold of death, and you don’t even have provisions for the road.
Create an island for yourself, fight vigorously, be wise.
Purified from filth, flawless, you will reach the heavenly kingdom of the noble.
And now your life has come to an end.
You have approached Yama, and yet you don’t even have a home, and you don’t even have provisions for the journey.
Make yourself an island, fight vigorously, be wise
Cleansed from filth, spotless, you will no longer come to birth and old age.
Gradually, little by little, from time to time,
a wise man must shake off dirt from himself, just as a silversmith shakes off his silver.
“Once India is in your heart, there is no turning back.” (Part 7. Quotes and phrases of Indian cinema.)
Indian cinema is not only rich in songs and dances, it is rich in wise phrases. Some phrases still help me in life. I want to share some of them.
There are soul mates in heaven. Meeting a soul mate on earth is much more difficult.
Take a step and the road will appear by itself...
Sorrows come to a person for free, but joys have to be paid for...
God is not with us, God is within us...
There are people like names written in the sand - one gust of wind and they are carried away...
Love is not a compromise. If someone loves you, they will love you for who you are. And if he tries to change you, that’s not love, that’s a deal.
If there is a God, then why does he make people suffer so much? - When we are happy, we forget about God, and we remember him only when we are unhappy...
Mothers can be very strange. When God created them, he put everything that needed to be put into the head into the heart... They think with it, they worry with it... and they love with it...
- Did you remember me? - No, I didn’t remember... Although, perhaps, I remembered... - When? - When I breathed...
Sometimes, to connect two hearts, you need to break one...
We need women more than they need us...
You can't return the past. It cannot be controlled. But you can avoid repeating the same mistakes in the future.
Playing a clown is a serious matter because clown tricks are misleading.
I am a circus performer, and we not only deceive sight, but also death.
You will live as long as you can. Just learn to count your life not in years, but in moments...
Good people die, but their kindness lives forever.
When a child is five years old, he needs to be pampered; when he is ten, he needs to be looked after; and when you turn sixteen, you need to make friends with him.
No matter how many reasons you have to die, one is enough to live.
Peace will come when there is mutual understanding! We need to hate wisely... otherwise, one day we ourselves will become those we hate...
Whether my India today has anything or not, it always has a lot of one thing - love... The local air, these buildings - everything here seems to exude love... One of the monuments of love is the Taj Mahal... In India, love is self-sacrifice, to love means to give, give and give...
The Don may not know or care what his friends are doing, but he is always aware of what his enemies are doing.
You really get to know a man only after marriage.
The roads of life are different. Walk along the road that is true, on which you will never have to bow, you will never have to fall. Never take such a step because of which the honor of the family and its name will suffer. Everyone earns money, but not everyone can earn respect.
...Mom is the one who loves us so much that sometimes we don’t even understand this love. Mom is the one who makes us understand how good we are and that there is no one better than us. Mom is the one who rejoices at our joys and is upset when we are sad. Mom is the one we cannot live without. Mom is everything...
If a person breathes, this does not mean that he lives.
...Even a broken clock shows the correct time twice a day.
If you want to climb the biggest peak in the world, then go for it. But remember one thing: when you look down from there, you will not see a single soul...
She wants him to keep talking - no matter what - because nothing drives her crazy more than a hot, agonizingly close whisper against your bare skin.
If a woman loves someone, then no matter how bad the man is, he is everything to her. And when she hates someone, then no matter how great he is, he is an empty place for her.
Life is like ice cream, enjoy it before it melts.
Love and death always come uninvited.
You don't win silver, you lose gold.

Upanishads
Translated it means “Secret Knowledge”. Ancient Indian ethical and philosophical treatises created over 2300 years - until the 15th century - the "Upanishads" were commentaries on the texts of the "Vedas" - the oldest sacred books and had a strong influence on the work of rising thinkers and poets from Shankara (VIII-IX centuries. ) before Rabindranath Tagore (XX century). More than two hundred Upanishads are known.
When a blade of grass is plucked, the whole Universe trembles.
It is easier to wrap the whole sky in a small scarf than to find true happiness without knowing yourself.
He looked around and saw nothing else but himself. Then he first exclaimed: “I am!” Then he got scared; for a man is afraid if he is alone.
Just as a mirror that has been dusted shines, so those who have known themselves shine in mind and body. They are always and forever full of happiness.
The secret of happiness is the contact of souls.
He who perceives everything as himself, and who sees himself in everything, does not give up anything. For the enlightened one, everything that exists is nothing more than a reflection of his essence. Therefore, how can any suffering or falsehood exist for one who has cognized this unity?
The form that embodies what appears in consciousness must remain within consciousness.
Through meditation one realizes the limitless. He who knows the limitless finds happiness. There is no happiness in small things.
What must be recognized is inexhaustible and endowed with a subtle essence, and life is truly fragile, therefore, leaving the networks of science, one should reflect on what is true.
Truly, man is fire... On this fire the gods make food offerings. From this offering a seed arises.
Truly a woman is fire... The womb is its fuel. Hairs are smoke. The reproductive parts are flames. Introduction inside - coals. Pleasure is sparks. On this fire the gods make an offering of man. He lives as long as he lives. When he dies, they carry him to the funeral fire... On this fire the gods make an offering to the person. From this offering a person emerges. Covered in radiance.
A thought that has left the difference between the reflector and the reflection, like a lamp in a windless place, occupied only with the subject of reflection, is the highest culmination, the “cloud of virtue,” as the gods call it. Then a person becomes liberated during his lifetime.
What must be recognized is inexhaustible and endowed with a subtle essence, and life is truly fragile, therefore, leaving the networks of science, one should reflect on what is true.
When a person has given up attachment to objects and the mind is enclosed in the heart, then this is the highest state.

Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people. God gives food to every bird, but He does not throw it into its beak.
Imitate the good even in your enemies, do not imitate the bad even in your parents.
Listen to useful speech, let it come from a child; do not listen to bad speeches, let them come from the elder.
The noble man speaks only about the virtues of his neighbor, although he is deprived of them; low - only about shortcomings. And let both of them lie - the first goes to heaven, and the second to hell.
Learn from the mistakes of others. It is impossible to live long enough to experience them all. There was not, is not and will not be a person worthy of only condemnation or only praise. The inconsolable is consoled by the past, the weak-minded by the future, the intelligent by the present. A person who lives for the sake of others, even a very short life, is filled with happiness. To govern yourself, use your head; To treat others, use your heart. Don't try to get without difficulty what someone else got justly. He who loses money loses a lot; He who loses a friend loses more; He who loses faith loses everything. The tongue weighs practically nothing, but very few people can hold it. Like a loving father, the king must protect his people from thieves, from officials, from the invasion of enemy hordes, from his favorite and from his own greed. Speak truthfully and pleasantly; do not say what is truthful but unpleasant; Do not say pleasant things but untruthful things - this is the eternal commandment. The world is full of joy for those who look at everyone without hostility and prejudice. Express only part of your praise to your friend’s face, and the other part behind his back. The wise do not grieve for the lost, for the dead, or for the past. This is how he differs from a fool. With great difficulty we lift a stone up a mountain, but it falls down instantly - in the same way virtues drag us all down, and vices drag us down. He is great who becomes blind in front of other people's wives, lame in pursuit of other people's wealth, dumb when hearing blasphemy against others. Live in your youth so that you can be happy in your old age. He who does not respond with anger to anger saves both – himself and the other. What good is a book to one who has no mind of his own? Is a mirror a help to the blind? Even the one who is far away is nearby if he is in your heart; even the one who stands next to you is far away if your thoughts are far from him. In youth, a person spends his health to earn money, and in old age he spends money to buy back his health, but no one has yet succeeded in doing this. If one man defeated a thousand times a thousand people in battle, and another defeated himself, he won more. It is better to conquer yourself than all other people. Happiness itself finds its way to a strong spirit.

John Shemyakin is a famous Russian blogger, whose page on Facebook has more than 50,000 subscribers, a subtle and witty intellectual, the author of delightful autobiographical tales that invariably cause a furor on the RuNet and intensively diverge into aphorisms.
“If they gave me a book with such an author on the cover, I would immediately understand that it was a hoax. Why John? How can this John have the last name Shemyakin?! It's kind of absurd. If they had told me that the violent blood of Kamchadals and Scots, Ural Old Believers, Germans and Manchus was intricately mixed in the author’s veins, I would be convinced that this is an obvious fake.
If I had found out that the author, a historian by training, also studied at a theological seminary, for some reason sailed on a tanker in the Pacific Ocean for a year, assuring the crew that he was a first-class cook, worked as a glass container receiver, deputy head of the Samara city administration, and as a result became a manufacturer of petroleum product purification systems, a whiskey dealer and the father of a large family, I would immediately say that such a zigzag fate does not exist.
And even if it happens, it looks wild outside the hospital walls. Yes, so be it. Short stories of madness about myself and my extended family will not get any worse. Quite the contrary. Read them with a feeling of well-deserved superiority - this feeling has never let you down, and it won’t let you down now.” John Shemyakin...And other animals...And other animals.
