Book Details
First Sentence
"During the introduction of the first Buddhist course I attended, the teacher said, "The Buddha instructed his disciples, 'Do not accept my teachings merely out of respect for me, but analyze and check them the way a goldsmith analyzes gold, by rubbing, cutting and melting it.' You are intelligent people and should think about what you hear during this course. Don't accept it blindly.""
