Existence and non-existence are extremes,

Purity and impurity are extremes as well,

Thus, having relinquished both extremes,

The wise do not dwell even in the middle.

Testing gold – Buddha Shakyamuni

Friday, June 25th, 2010

“Just as gold is tested by being burnt, cut and rubbed, the learned should accept my words only after examining them, not simply out of faith or other such reasons.”

-Buddha Shakyamuni (Śrīmahābālatantrarāja)
