The Buddha on Belief
From The Kama Sutra
"Do not believe in anything simply because you have
heard it. Do not believe simply because it has been
handed down for many generations. Do not believe
in anything simply because it is spoken, and rumored
by many. Do not believe in anything simply because
it is written in holy scriptures. Do not believe in
anything merely on the authority of teachers, elders,
or wise men. Believe only after careful observation,
and analysis. When you find that it agrees with
reason, and is condusive to the good, and benefit
of one and all. Then accept it, and live up to it."
