One day Mara, the Evil One, was travelling through the villages of India with his attendants. he saw a man doing walking meditation whose face was lit up on wonder. The man had just discovered something on the ground in front of him.

Mara's attendant asked what that was and Mara replied, "A piece of truth." "Doesn't this bother you when someone finds a piece of truth, O Evil One?" his attendant asked. "No," Mara replied. "Right after this, they usually make a belief out of it."

Intr-o zi Mara cel Rau mergea prin satele din India cu insotitorii sai si vazu un om care medita si care avea fata luminata ca de o minune. Omul tocmai descoperise ceva pe pamant in fata lui

Insotitorul lui Mara intreba ce este iar Mara raspunse : "O bucata de adevar". "Te supara cand cineva gaseste o bucata de adevar stapane al raului ? " intreba insotitorul. "Nu" raspunse Mara. "Imediat dupa ei o transforma intr-o religie"

Do not be idolatrous about or bound to any doctrine, theory, or ideology, even Buddhist ones. Buddhist systems of thought are guiding means; they are not absolute truth.


Do not think the knowledge you presently possess is changeless, absolute truth. Avoid being narrow minded and bound to present views. Learn and practice nonattachment from views in order to be open to receive others' viewpoints. Truth is found in life and not merely in conceptual knowledge. Be ready to learn throughout your entire life and to observe reality in yourself and in the world at all times.


Do not force others, including children, by any means whatsoever, to adopt your views, whether by authority, threat, money, propaganda, or even education. However, through compassionate dialogue, help others renounce fanaticism and narrow-mindedness.
