Itivuttaka 1.27


"This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:............

Those gurus and priests who sacrifice life, objects, or fire, who bathe ceremoniously, devoted to mere forms and empty ritual, blindly attached to and obsessed by culture and traditions of primitive and often unknown origin, do never experience even a 16th of this release of mind by friendliness fully brought into being, just like the vagueness of even all the stars cannot ever outshine the moon!
