“We suppress our natural questing spirit. We plow ahead without taking a good, hard look at what we're doing and why. We buy into ready made systems of thought, habit, and belief sold to us by our culture, families, friends, and associates. We fall into step with the herd and almost unthinkingly adhere to whatever cult(ure) we're brought up in, unconsciously living our received beliefs and assumptions, for the most part without question or examination.” ~Lama Surya Das
