If we find fault with others We ourselves are also in the wrong.
When other people are in the wrong, we should ignore it, For it is wrong for us to find fault.
By getting rid of the habit of fault-finding We cut off a source of defilement.
Excerpt from the Platform sutra. Huineng. Sixth Patriarch of zen.
T. O. M's comment.
Who here can heed the Sixth Patriarchs sound advice?
Or do the haters know better than the wise old patriarch of Chinese Chan?
Peace.
