We seem to be sticking to our favorite pitches where the umpires are from the past. Why not leave the baggage that is borrowed from others and bask in our own glory. It is certainly not easy to move to uncharted seas for fear of getting lost. All the saints are self governed and have left strong imprints in those around themselves which was passed along with adding extraneous skins. The essence is the same, be your best friend and life will talk to you, the revelation of  "Buddha's Silence".
