I think the more we ingrain our own beliefs and judgements, the further away we are from our goal as Buddhists...

Sure - but then I wonder if that might also include that one is meant to just turn a blind eye to wrong-doing because its done by the establishment? Its possible that one can be told that one mustn't criticise teachers because they're 'holy' and its just one's own imperfect 'beliefs and judgements' getting in the way !

Anyway, as this thread is in the Beginners forum and was meant for members of all traditions to discuss their daily practice, I think we've gone right off topic and so further comments on 'Hinayana' would be better in a different thread elsewhere now, please.

Please note - Our moderator Kaarine has already asked we return to topic in #26

Many thanks
