“Tissa reflected that religion is divine poetry whilst morality is made up of customs and traditions that change with the place and the times. How do men who read the same books he reads, live on the same kind of food in the same world and social class, differ so much from him and from each other in mind and body? He concluded that his present state of body and mind that gives rise to his reflections cannot be just the outcome of books he read and the food he ate, nor his own efforts to adapt to his world and his social class. Human beings are born with an individuality that is unique to each, but this cannot be attributed to the presence or absence of a soul. The same individuality is there in each leaf, and one leaf differs from another. Yet all the leaves get the same nourishment from the roots of the tree, and the sun and the air.”

“An outsider's inquisitiveness to know another's private affairs is natural, but not so in children with respect to their parents. Children know the overt personal life of their parents. It is a crime for children to probe into mistakes made by their parents, like detectives looking for evidence of crimes. Any man can make mistakes, however good he may be. It is wrong for children to inquisitively probe into their parents' lives, and have fun or show anger over what they uncover. It is like digging into the heads of ancient statues in search of archaeological artefacts. Nanda spoke with anger.”

“I’d wager that our problem is not a theology problem, though plenty of that exists. Further, our problem isn’t that we don’t have enough evangelism, church planting, or missional outreach initiatives. Our problem, at its core, is an identity problem. We have self-proclaimed Christians who lack clarity on what it means to be in Christ and for Christ to be in them. Worse yet, many lack the understanding of who Christ has invited them to become through the cross, resurrection, and the transformative power of His Spirit. There is an unhealthy fixation on what God must want us to do rather than on who God wants us to become.”
