Parallels - Wisdom and Knowledge

Do not offer to dogs what is sacred, or they will tear you to shreds. Do not throw your pearls before swine, for they will only trample them underfoot.
~ The Gospels of Matthew & Thomas ~

The wise man should not disturb those of little understanding, who are deluded by the phenomena of the material world.
~ The Bagavad Gita ~

Even though a fool gains the company of a wise man, he does not comprehend Truth any more than a spoon tastes the flavor of the soup.
~ The Buddha ~

The wise person teaches without speaking.
~ Tao Te Ching ~
All selections from Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, and Lao Tzu: The Parallel Sayings by Richard Hooper.
