The Buddha says: be conscious and look at the kindness, not at the faults of others

 
 
My Boeddha@MyBoeddhaAlways be mindful of the kindness and not the faults of others” #boeddha

My God, would you like to comment on this tweet?

The ego is a wonderful phenomenon. It is a necessary tool for evolution and a autonomous
“energetic” field of experience and memory and intention and will. But as previously stated, it has rapidly started a life of his own with conceit, pretensions and especially a lot of delusions and illusions.
An important aspect of this whole is touched on in this tweet.
An omnipresent tendency of the ego is to compare the errors of others with the nice qualities of oneself, next to each other. So much self-conceit and much prejudice.


It would be a nice task for some of you to do it the other way around: comparing the nice qualities of others with the mistakes of oneself. You would unlearn much judgment, prejudice, egotism, selfishness and egocentrism. It would be a renunciation of the ego. And where the ego is forsaken “My God” and the soul get space. A tour of limitation and complacency towards listening and loving experience. A liberation from old patterns and much insight into something elementary, something all people should realize: that you are all the same, that you all have more in common that unites us in stead of dividing you, that you experience a loving treatment of others automatically to be transformed into better relationships, better contact, more space and more humor. Those who really look at themselves will after all laugh a lot.

"Always be mindful of the kindness and not the faults of others"

You will see how many fellowmen are actually nice and walking around with sincere intentions. And they are dependent and vulnerable. And deeply hidden they are like many others longing for happiness, and they don’t find this happiness often.
Gentleness and a smile will be common in stead of formerly grim judgment and rejection.
Thus, you will become truly children of ONE God, or in the eyes of atheists: children of ONE earth.

My blessings to you all
