丹津‧葩默：沒關係，先放一邊，也許日後就會明白它的價值
如果我們遇上一些事，且即使在仔細的審思後還是難以接受，那並不表示佛法應該整個都被丟棄。這些年後，即使是現在，我還是會發現藏傳佛法中的某些事情是我根本不確定的。以前我通常會把這些事拿去請教上師，而他會說：「沒關係。顯然妳和那個特定法教還未真正相應。這無所謂。就先把它放一邊。不要說：『不，這個不對。』只要說：『目前這個階段，我的心還無法接受這個。』也許日後妳會明白它的價值，或者還是不會明白。但這並不重要。」

If we come across certain things that we find difficult to accept even after careful investigation, that doesn't mean the whole Dharma has to be thrown overboard. Even now, after all these years, I still find certain things in the Tibetan Dharma which I'm not sure about at all. I used to go to my Lama and ask him about some of these things, and he would say, "That's fine. Obviously you don't really have a connection with that particular doctrine. It doesn't matter. Just put it aside. Don't say, `No, it's not true.' Just say, `At this point, my mind does not embrace this.' Maybe later you'll appreciate it, or maybe you won't. It's not important.”
