Kalama Sutta : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kalama Sutta
The Kālāma Sutta is a discourse of the Buddha contained in the Aṅguttara Nikaya of the Tipiṭaka.〔AN 3.65; PTS: A.i.188; Thai III.66〕 It is often cited by those of the Theravada and Mahayana traditions alike as the Buddha's "charter of free inquiry."〔("Kalama Sutta, The Buddha's Charter of Free Inquiry" ) by Soma Thera〕 The Kālāma Sutta is also used for advocating prudence by the use of sound logical reasoning arguments and the dialectic principles for inquiries in the practice that relates to the discipline of seeking truth, wisdom and knowledge whether it is religious or not. In short, the Kālāma Sutta is opposed to blind faith, dogmatism and belief spawned from specious reasoning.〔("Kalama Sutta: To the Kalamas" ) translated from the Pali by Thanissaro Bhikkhu〕 == Premise == The sutta starts off by describing how the Buddha passes through the village of Kesaputta and is greeted by its inhabitants, a clan called the ''Kalamas''. They ask for his advice: they say that many wandering holy men and ascetics pass through, expounding their teachings and criticizing the teachings of others. So whose teachings should they follow? He delivers in response a sermon that serves as an entry point to the Dhamma, the Buddhist teachings for those unconvinced by mere spectacular revelation.
