![]() "The Buddha always told his disciples not to waste their time and energy in metaphysical speculation. Whenever he was asked a metaphysical question, he remained silent. Instead, he directed his disciples toward practical efforts. One time he said, "Suppose a man is struck by a poinsoned arrow and the doctor wishes to take the arrow out immediately. Suppose the man does not want the arrow removed until he knows who shot it, his age, his parents, and why he shot it. What would happen? If he were to wait until all these questions were answered, the man might die first.' Life is so short. It must not be spent in endless metaphysical speculation that does not bring us any closer to the truth."
"I see God more real than I see you."
"You should not say, "God is in my heart," but rather, "I am in the heart of God."
The ten abstinences are nonviolence, truth, nonstealing, chastity, kindness, rectitude, forgiveness, endurance, temperance in food and purity.
