Buddha Quote

Sunday April 5, 2026

Time
Time exists only when one waits for the future to come, and when
one wishes for the past to come again. It doesn't exist for one
who lives in the now only. There is no time (conception of time)
to the Bodhisattva. He is not anxious to attain the future fruit
of Buddhahood (which He knows is "a matter of time"-which is why
He is still a Bodhisattva) and He yearns not to return to His
deluded unbodhisattvic past. So don't say you don't want to be a
Bodhisattva just because you don't want to spend aeons
enlightening countless beings. Because you say that only because
you are yet a Bodhisattva. Don't wait then. Learn to be a
Bodhisattva now. Because of the preciousness of time not being a
concern to a Bodhisattva, time should be a concern to you to
quickly become a Bodhisattva-so that you can quickly enlighten
all beings!

We offer Daily Buddha Quotes & Meditations for a more peaceful life. The quotes of Buddha you see
here are interpretations of Buddist concepts. As we know, there are many Buddhas, as well as many incarnations
of Buddha. The quotes of Buddha we publish here may not be exact words, but perhaps they are -- there may be
an incarnation of the Buddha right next to you, but you haven't recognized the Enlightened One yet!
