Kalama Sutra
“Rely not on the teacher/person, but on the teaching. Rely not
on the words of the teaching, but on the
spirit of the words. Rely not on theory, but on experience.Do not
believe in anything simply because you
have heard it. Do not believe in traditions because they have been
handed down for many generations. Do
not believe anything because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do
not believe in anything because it is
written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely
on the authority of your teachers and
elders. But after observation and analysis, when you find that
anything agrees with reason and is
conducive to the good and the benefit of one and all, then accept
it and live up to it.”
