buddhistfriend: Buddha Shakyamuni said “I shall prostrate to the new moon and not to the full moon.” The new moon refers to the first realizations that we develop and the full moon refers to the advanced and qualified realizations of Superior beings. Buddha’s meaning is that since great realizations arise in dependence upon small ones we should protect and honor our first experiences of Dharma. - Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
