世人常以己心度人，开口便论他人是非，总怨旁人未合己意，满眼皆是他人过错，却不见点滴感恩、善意与包容。心若执于评判，言语便成利刃。若不喜，本可少言、疏远、各自安好，不必以恶语相向。一味苛责，终换不来想要的理解，只引来深深的厌弃。久与这样的人相处，心也会被戾气沾染，不知不觉染上恶习。口业最易造，伤人亦伤己，徒增烦恼，毫无益处，实为最愚痴之事。修心先修口，守善念、存包容，才能远离是非，得内心安然。——加措上师 Some People often judge others by their own standards, speaking ill of others at every turn, complaining that others fail to meet their expectations, seeing only faults in others yet not a trace of gratitude, kindness or tolerance. When the mind is attached to judgment, words become sharp blades. If you dislike someone, you may simply speak less, keep a distance and live in peace, rather than lash out with harsh words. Constant criticism will never win the understanding you desire; it only earns deep resentment. Staying too long with such people taints your heart with bitterness, and you unconsciously pick up bad habits. Verbal karma is the easiest to create—it harms others as well as yourself, bringing nothing but needless troubles and no good at all. This is truly the most foolish act. To cultivate the mind, first tame the tongue. Uphold good thoughts and embrace tolerance, so you may stay away from conflicts and find peace within.——Respected Teacher Jia Cuo
