The Buddha’s dharma continues:

“Do not believe in that which comes to your imagination, thinking that it must be the revelation of a superior Being.”

I wasn’t sure what this exactly meant at first.  After thinking about it, I’ve postulated that maybe it pertains to someone whose imagination concocts evil things upon which they act in the name of a “superior Being” making them think the actions are justified.  I can think of a lot of instances where people manipulate truth to justify actions.  I have done this myself and I’m not proud of it.  I can only strive to seek truth and purity to ensure I don’t behave in this way again…maybe that will be my penance.
