Mig Posted August 23, 2020 Does someone knows where this quote come from?: “Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.” Laozi I couldn't find the original in Chinese and don't even know if it is another made up quote?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bindi Posted August 23, 2020 Oddly similar to this one Health is the greatest gift, contentment is the greatest wealth, a trusted friend is the best relative, Nibbana is the greatest bliss. Verse 204 of the Dhammapada, in a translation by Daw Mya Tin. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is amazing how much is out there that is always difficult to trust even in respectable forums. Thanks for sharing 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
