Dear Children,
Do not believe in anything
simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in anything
simply because it is spoken by many.
Do not believe in anything
simply because it is found 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.
With Love, Amma-Naana
