Guest guest Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 Once a young man complained to the doctor, 'Wherever I go and whatever I read, the articles always point out that smoking is bad. Whatever magazines I come across, I read that smoking is bad. Articles that are given to me always speak about the dangers of smoking.' The concerned doctor asked, 'so have you stopped smoking.' Out come the reply, 'No, I have stopped reading!' 'Reading is not enough, you may master all the commentaries and you may be able to argue and discuss with great scholars about these texts; but without attempting to practice what they teach, it is a waste of time. I never approve of book learning; practice is what I evaluate.' (Sathya Sai Speaks Vol 1 - pg 43) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
