二一一 教 育

大師對於神聖的宗教知識及教育一向抱着存疑態度,常常鼓勵科學、藝術或其他方面的研究,所以他順理成章地接受國立大學的邀請,前去演講。

他提早一小時抵達學校,瀏覽校園,觀摩教學設備,對那些向所未聞的現代化設備,讚嘆有加。

而他的演講一如慣例,還不到一分鐘就結束了。他說:

「如果靈心慧眼不在其中,所有的實驗室、圖書館、廳堂、迴廊、拱門以及豐富的講學都形同虛設。」

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.”
