When the Master entered the Grand Temple he asked questions about everything there. Someone said, Do not tell me that this son of a villager from Tsou is expert in matters of ritual. When he went to the Grand Temple, he had to ask about everything. The Master hearing of this said, Just so such is the ritual.
Always ask questions. Don’t be afraid of other people thinking that you’re dumb. Ask different people for the same answers. Listen to the way that they think about it.
