二一一 教 育

大师对于神圣的宗教知识及教育一向抱着存疑态度,常常鼓励科学、艺术或其他方面的研究,所以他顺理成章地接受国立大学的邀请,前去演讲。

他提早一小时抵达学校,浏览校园,观摩教学设备,对那些向所未闻的现代化设备,赞叹有加。

而他的演讲一如惯例,还不到一分钟就结束了。他说:

「如果灵心慧眼不在其中,所有的实验室、图书馆、厅堂、回廊、拱门以及丰富的讲学都形同虚设。」

EDUCATION

Suspicious as the Master was of knowledge and learning in matters divine, he never
missed a chance to encourage the arts and sciences and every other form of learning. So it
was no surprise that he readily accepted an invitation to address the University
Convocation.

He arrived an hour ahead of time to wander about the Campus and marvel at the
facilities for learning that were quite non-existent in his own day.

Typically, his Convocation speech lasted less than a minute. He said:

“Laboratories and libraries, halls and porch and arch and learned lectures — all shall
be of no avail if the wise heart and the Seeing Eye are absent.”
