The famous sayings are as follows:

1. Knowledge is not to please people, but a necessary quality.

2. Observe your own thinking and scrutinize your cultivation; understand the thinking of others and cultivate wisdom.

3. Learning is not to climb a peak, but to enjoy the most wonderful scenery just like climbing a mountain. Kumarajiva (343-413) was an eminent monk of the Later Qin Dynasty during the Sixteen Kingdoms period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and one of the four major translators of Buddhist scriptures in Chinese Han Buddhism in China.
