Do not believe in anything 
simply because you have heard it. 
Do not believe in anything 
simply because it is spoken and rumoured 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.
