Re: Do You Want To Know For Sure That You Are Going To Heaven? The reason some people don't know for sure if they are going to Heaven when they die is because they just don't know. The good news is that you can know for sure that you are going to Heaven which is described in the Holy Bible as a beautiful place with no death, sorrow, sickness or pain. (newsgroup-post 140)

Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter
if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own
common sense.
Buddha
Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.
Buddha
Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.
Buddha
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the
mind on the present moment.
Buddha
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies
others does not obtain peace of mind.
Buddha
Ennui has made more gamblers than avarice, more drunkards than thirst,
and perhaps as many suicides as despair.
Buddha
Every human being is the author of his own health or disease.
Buddha
Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal
rule.
Buddha
He is able who thinks he is able.
Buddha
He who experiences the unity of life sees his own Self in all beings, and
all beings in his own Self, and looks on everything with an impartial
eye.
Buddha
He who loves 50 people has 50 woes; he who loves no one has no woes.
Buddha
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth,
faithfulness the best relationship.
Buddha
Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of
throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
Buddha
However many holy words you read,However many you speak,What good will
they do youIf you do not act on upon them?
Buddha
I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do
believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
Buddha
I never see what has been done; I only see what remains to be done.
Buddha
In a controversy the instant we feel anger we have already ceased
striving for the truth, and have begun striving for ourselves.
Buddha
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create
distinctions out of their own minds and then beleive them to be true.
Buddha
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil
ways.
Buddha
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the
victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by
demons, heaven or hell.
Buddha
It is better to travel well than to arrive.
Buddha
Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a
spiritual life.
Buddha
Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from
good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk
safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and
the guidance of virtue.
Buddha
Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at
least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we
didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us
all be thankful.
Buddha
On life's journey faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter,
wisdom is the light by day and right mindfulness is the protection by
night. If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him.
Buddha
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
Buddha
Teach this triple truth to all: A generous heart, kind speech, and a life
of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
Buddha
The foot feels the foot when it feels the ground.
Buddha
The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows.
Buddha
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past,
nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and
earnestly.
Buddha
The tongue like a sharp knife... Kills without drawing blood.
Buddha
The virtues, like the Muses, are always seen in groups. A good principle
was never found solitary in any breast.
Buddha
The wise ones fashioned speech with their thought, sifting it as grain is
sifted through a sieve.
Buddha
The world, indeed, is like a dream and the treasures of the world are an
alluring mirage! Like the apparent distances in a picture, things have no
reality in themselves, but they are like heat haze.
Buddha
There are five things which no one is able to accomplish in this world:
first, to cease growing old when he is growing old; second, to cease
being sick; third, to cease dying; fourth, to deny dissolution when there
is dissolution; fifth, to deny non-being.
Buddha
There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not
going all the way, and not starting.
Buddha
There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates
people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up
pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword
that kills.
Buddha
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.
Buddha
Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of
the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being
shared.
Buddha
Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.
Buddha
To be idle is a short road to death and to be diligent is a way of life;
foolish people are idle, wise people are diligent.
Buddha
To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring
peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a
man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all
wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.
Buddha
To live a pure unselfish life, one must count nothing as one's own in the
midst of abundance.
Buddha
Unity can only be manifested by the Binary. Unity itself and the idea of
Unity are already two.
Buddha
Virtue is persecuted more by the wicked than it is loved by the good.
Buddha
We are formed and molded by our thoughts. Those whose minds are shaped by
selfless thoughts give joy when they speak or act. Joy follows them like
a shadow that never leaves them.
Buddha
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our
thoughts, we make the world.
Buddha
What is the appropriate behavior for a man or a woman in the midst of
this world, where each person is clinging to his piece of debris? What's
the proper salutation between people as they pass each other in this
flood?
Buddha
What we think, we become.
Buddha
Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear
them and be influenced by them for good or ill.
Buddha
When one has the feeling of dislike for evil, when one feels tranquil,
one finds pleasure in listening to good teachings; when one has these
feelings and appreciates them, one is free of fear.
Buddha
Without health life is not life; it is only a state of langour and
suffering - an image of death.
Buddha
Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.
Buddha
You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more
deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that
person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in
the entire universe deserve your love and affection.
Buddha
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your
love and affection.
Buddha
Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give
yourself to it.
