The Buddha

The Buddha (saying recorded in the 3rd Century BCE Dhammapada)

“Better than living a hundred years
not seeing arising and passing away,
is a single day lived
arising and passing away seen.”

  • The Dhammapada (Verses on the Way, Chapter 8), recorded in the 3rd century BCE. Translation by Glenn Wallis, 2004.
