Jiddu Krishnamurti: "....The entire Tipitaka stands testimony to the fact that the Buddha did not teach or encourage sectarianism, organised religion, rites-rituals, dogmas and philosophical beliefs.
The Teachings as taught by the Buddha are neither Mahayana nor Hinayana. The Buddha taught Dhamma - the universal law of nature - the truth - the teachings. He did not establish a sect. It was about 500 years after the passing away of the Buddha that the terms Mahayana and Hinayana etc. first started gaining popularity. The whole Tipitaka stands testimony to the fact that the Buddha did not establish sects called Mahayana or Hinayana...."
'”No body listened to Him, that is why there is Buddhism.”
