Then there are the Buddhists. Their life is different again. The Buddhist sage can begin his kind of life from the very first. He can become a sage at any age. He becomes a 'chela' and his living comes to him wherever he goes. The house of any Buddhist is open to a sage. No one ever closes his doors to such a one. So he never worries himself about his food, for he will get it wherever he goes. The same respect and honor is paid to the Buddhist sage as to the Hindu, for he is a renunciate just like the Burhai or the Sant. His life is devoted to teaching good morals to people and to make their lives happy. Buddhist people make great celebrations all through the country to commemorate their sages. They never consider them as dead; they are so sure they have gone to a new and better life. And this is certainly true.
