For all his traditional ways, the Master has scant respect for rules

and for traditions.

 

A quarrel once broke out between a disciple and his daughter because

the man kept insisting that the girl conform to the rules of their

religion in the choice of her prospective husband.

 

The Master openly sided with the girl.

 

When the disciple expressed his surprise that the holy man would do

this, the Master said, " You must understand that life is just like

music, which is made more by feeling and by instinct than by rules. "

 

Anthony de Mello, SJ
