A TIP FROM A SENIOR MONK ON PRACTISING SELF-RESTRAINT
Master Jun Hong Lu: There is no such thing as ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ in the human realm, only the law of causality prevails.
Let me impart a method on practising self-restraint passed down by a senior monk:
If he slanders me, I must tolerate him;
If he bullies me, I must yield to him;
If he humiliates me, I must avoid him;
If he belittles me, I must let him be;
If he looks down on me, I must be respectful towards him.
