Rituals and Sacrifices

The rituals and the sacrifices described In the Vedas deal with lower knowledge. The sages ignored these rituals and went in search of higher knowledge.  Such rituals are unsafe rafts for crossing the sea of samsara, of birth and death. Doomed to shipwreck are those who try to cross the sea of samsara on these poor rafts. Ignorant of their own ignorance, yet wise in their own esteem, these deluded men proud of their vain learning go round and round like the blind led by the blind.
