From Gospel of Thomas:
Jesus said, "Why have you come out to the countryside? To see a reed shaken by the wind? And to see a person dressed in soft clothes, [like your] rulers and your powerful ones? They are dressed in soft clothes, and they cannot understand truth."
This remains me of Ramana saying that a wise person stays under the shade of the tree to shelter himself from the heat. And an unwise person keeps going back and forth.
