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

Listen Twice as Much as We Speak

   
 

LISTEN TWICE AS MUCH AS WE SPEAK

Master Jun Hong Lu: One’s ability in arguing is not necessarily what is most valuable. After all, we have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak. A true mind-cultivator is one who is adept at attentive listening and who appreciates that this skill forms the foundation for being a cultured person.
