“If you consider something to be the truth, and if you are attached to that, you are caught. Even when the truth itself comes and knocks at your door, you will not open it. The practice of releasing your knowledge is very important in Buddhism. Knowledge is the first obstacle of the mind that a meditator should be able to remove. We should not to be too sure of anything.” — Thich Nhat Hanh
