who or what is "The Buddha”?
This is not a name given by a mother nor a father, nor a brother, nor a sister,
nor by friends and companions, nor by kindred and relatives,
nor by recluses and brahmans, nor by deities.
It is the name for the ultimate liberation of enlightenment of the Blessed One,
together with the omniscient knowledge received at the root of the Tree of Wisdom;
it is a designation based on realization, that is to say, this name “the Buddha.”
Mindfulness of Breathing.
“To the Dharma treasury of the self–existent mind /
free from defilement or belief in a self /
may the Buddha teach us the path /
to the knowledge found within ourselves."
"Waking up this morning, I smile:
Twenty-four brand-new hours are before me.
I vow to live each moment fully and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion."
