Waking Up…

Do not believe in any­thing
sim­ply because you have heard it.

Do not believe in any­thing
sim­ply because it is spo­ken and rumored by many.

Do not believe in any­thing
sim­ply because it is found writ­ten in your reli­gious books.

Do not believe in any­thing
merely on the author­ity of your teach­ers and elders.

Do not believe in tra­di­tions
because they have been handed down for many generations.

But after obser­va­tion and analy­sis;
when you find that any­thing agrees with rea­son
and is con­ducive to the good and ben­e­fit of one and all,
then accept it and live up to it.

This is fear­less­ness, and it is love!

- Bud­dha
