PRINCIPLE IN EQUALITY
Those who speak of equality
speak from their own convenient
standpoint. In . discrimination is

as this has been greatly twisted
around. In practical life is the
problem of discrimination solved
by conceiving all 'things equal ? Or
is the principle of equality taught
all
from a standpoint confirmin
things basically unequal. There Is
no one with the fullest grasp of
this idea to distinguish the two,
but undoubtedly, the next era re
quires a firm grasp of the concept
of equality.
In Buddhism, man and Buddha
are equal. Why? This idea can be
clearly comprehended if the Bud
dha’s ultimate end and aim is
studied. The object of the Buddha
lies in their practising the“Patli
of Truth” with men.
The final
purpose of the Buddha is to ele
vate mankind to the same lofty
heights, attained by the Buddha
himself. Therefore, at the moment
the promise of the Buddha is ful
filled, man rises to the same level
and here all difference and discri
ruination disappear. Man himself
has attained Buddhahood.
