Bhante, I meant the “Interpretation of the Tipitaka” is not done according to the personal confidences about monks. I didn’t mean every confidence is mistaken or monks should not be checked.
Mahapadesa sutta only allow us to accept any Thera’s opinion after checking with Dhammavinaya.
And the Commentary only allow us to accept any Thera’s opinion after checking with the Commentary.
Once even a Sotapanna Thera had not been allowed by the Sangha to interpret Tipitaka because he had not learned in the traditional way. (according to the Commentary)
I like to hear it bhante.
