The teachings of Buddha have benefited countless followers for thousands of years, and one of the most important lessons that one can take away is from this quote:
“All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts and made up of our thoughts.
What we think, we become”
Gautama Buddha
It tells us of the power of our minds.
These wise words are closely related to the use of positive affirmations, where we aim to replace negative and self-limiting thoughts with positive and empowering ones.
Thoughts that spur us to take action and manifest our goals and dreams.
They are also the perfect accompaniment to building up self-confidence and finding peace within oneself.
In this post, you will find a list of Buddha affirmations that will help you achieve that.
Use them to form your own Buddhist mantras that you can use to achieve your goals and dreams.
How can Buddha affirmations benefit you?
You do not necessarily need to be a Buddhist or even religious to practice affirmations.
Anyone can do it, and different people do so for many different reasons.
Some of us want more positivity in our lives, some need focus and discipline to achieve a goal, while others might be searching for inner peace, zen, and spirituality.
The list of Buddha affirmations below (some influenced by modern-day practitioners such as Tibetan Buddhist nun Ani Trime Lhamo) are scripted to mimic its teachings and are especially effective while meditating.
As you advance your practice, you improve your ability to visualize, relax, and improve your life potential.
Buddhist Mantras for Self Love
When you’re feeling stuck in a rut, or out of balance with your life, it can be hard to get back on track.
But it’s not impossible!
I’ve got a few Zen Buddhist mantras for self-love that will help you get your energy flowing again.
“May all beings be happy and free.”
This one is easy—just think of all the people in the world, and wish them happiness and freedom.
In fact, you can extend this to all living things.
“May I be happy and free from harm.”
While this mantra may sound simple, it helps you focus on yourself rather than others:
You’re happy and safe at this moment; nothing can touch you now.
“My body is a home for my mind.”
This one is about as straightforward as they come—it reminds us that our bodies are where we live and think and feel, so let’s treat them well!
