Remember the
Simile of the Saw... The Blessed Buddha once said:
Friends, even if bandits were to cut you up, savagely, limb by limb,
with a two-handled saw, you should not be angry but do my bidding:
Remain pervading them with a friendly Awareness imbued with an
all-embracing good will, kind, rich, expansive, and immeasurable.
Free from hostility, free from ill will. Always remembering this very
Simile of the Saw is indeed how you should train yourselves...
Majjhima Nikāya 21 |
