Famous quotes;quotations from asian philosophers 1 Year, 2 Months ago Karma: 19  


hello asia observers

please drop by to post quotes which inspire
our lives from popular asian philosophies.



Mahatma Gandhi Quotes

We must become the change we want to see.

Nonviolence is a weapon of the strong.

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.

Whenever you have truth it must be given with love, or the message and the messenger will be rejected.

What do I think of Western civilisation? I think it would be a very good idea.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Whenever you are confronted with an opponent. Conquer him with love.

Nobody can hurt me without my permission.

There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.




Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (October 2, 1869 – January 30, 1948) was a major political and spiritual leader of India and the Indian independence movement. In India, he is recognized as the Father of the Nation. October 2nd, his birthday, is commemorated each year as Gandhi Jayanti, and is a national holiday. He was the pioneer of Satyagraha — the resistance of tyranny through mass civil disobedience, firmly founded upon ahimsa or total non-violence — which led India to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. Gandhi is commonly known in India and across the world as Mahatma Gandhi (mahatma: Great Soul) and as Bapu (in Gujarati, Father).

Hey linsi, this is a fun thread. I enjoy reading famous quotes from wise men and women. Here's another one:

"Even the severed branch grows again, and the sunken moon returns: wise men who ponder this are not troubled in adversity."

- by Bhartrihari, South Asian philosopher

hi pokkha,

let's keep up with this


“Even when walking in the company of two other men, I am bound to be able to learn from them. The good points of the one I copy; the bad points of the other I correct in myself.”

~ Confucius
6th century bce Chinese sage and founder of Confucianism
from The Analects
