Excerpts from Buddhism in Plain TermsMaster Jun Hong Lu’s Public Talk

To Forgive Others Is to Be Kind to Oneself

   
 

TO FORGIVE OTHERS IS TO BE KIND TO ONESELF

Master Jun Hong Lu: If you wish to receive help from others, you must first offer help to others; if you wish to be loved by others, you must first love others; if you wish to gain benefits, you must first let others gain benefits from you; a tolerant person is able to transform a foe to a friend. There are two things that you must learn to endure in life – one is to learn to endure hardships, and the other, which is more important, is to learn to take the short end of the stick.
