Have you got a local mind? Broaden it! Have you got an international mind? Broaden it! Have you got a universal mind? It is not enough, because there are other universes. Broaden it! Broaden your mind till you get a multi-universal mind! And yet, this is not enough too! Broaden it! Leave your village; leave your city; leave your country; leave the earth; leave the universe; leave all the universes! Don’t let your mind to cast anchor in any port! Narrow mind is the greatest enemy of the truth! The best mind is the one which has no frontiers! . Mehmet Murat Ildan
About This Quote

The Buddha was a teacher who lived in India over two thousand years ago. He was the first person to teach people about meditation and how to live a life of compassion and love. He often said, "Buddhist wisdom is the greatest treasure in the world, but without the heart to practice it, it's useless." He believed that wisdom alone can not achieve true happiness. You need to have a reason for living, a goal to work toward.

And this is where the Buddha's teachings take on great significance. We are all different, but what we have in common is our ability to be happy. Buddhists believe that by practicing his teachings you can make yourself happy, or at least make others happy through your actions.

If you believe this, you should learn more about Buddhist principles and practices so that you can make your life count for something meaningful.
