The Power of Custom | October 9, 2014

That the Buddhist religion has survived so long in the world is a result not so much of the durability of manuscripts as of the power of ideas embodied in custom; and custom, for all our abundant sources of information, is what we lack and cannot in the long run do without. 
 
- Bhikkhu Nyanasobhano, "Selective Wisdom"
