Whenever you see something of the heart, avoid the temptation to criticize it.

Just the opposite is the case with people. They can tolerate your ideology, they can tolerate your mind, but the moment they see your love, your trust, they jump upon you.

You can criticize the mind

but not the heart. Whenev

the sutra cannot be really against jokes. It is against hurting peo

people. What he is saying is going deeper into the psychology of the joke, into the rationale behind the joke

Take up the three parts of the principal cause.

Take up the three parts of the principal cause.

Now you have to do the almost impossible thing—to catch hold of a certain feeling. Have you not watched sometimes?

Something is getting ready underground, some feeling is gathering force

Keep them in your heart: they will nourish you, they will strengthen you, they will transform you.
