    I invite you to read the following sutta.
    http://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/mn/mn.049.than.html


    Buddha taught:

    Open are the doors to the Deathless
    to those with ears.
    Let them show their conviction.
    Perceiving trouble, O Brahma,
    I did not tell people
    the refined,
    sublime Dhamma.



    if we have doubt about this, to explain:

    Faith [conviction], monks, also has a supporting condition, I say, it does not lack a supporting condition. And what is the supporting condition for faith? 'Suffering' should be the reply.

    the suttas are not for those still engrossed in & infatuated with the world & creation
