When speaking on others, Buddha says pass no comment and see no derision. But I say we should unless we don’t or want provacation in our life. For when we find another to pass comment on we say we shouldn’t but do, that’s provaction busting. But when we see ill or ill refuted behavior then we have provaction blues if we don’t comment. Our passage is to comment and act warily but justly. For when we find behavior of a kind that is provacative and just we pass comment, and Buddhists have: like when the nuns protested the Tibetan takeover by the Chinese. They were praised. I praised, the Dalai Lama praised and so did Tricycle, where I get most of my commentary from in the Editorial Section and the Back Page Commentary. Why not praise ill behavior and comment on it just as justly as I did on my friend in Belfast who regains what he recoups because he is single and doesn’t have taxes to pay with family. Just the commentary I like. What are your commentaries or comments? See about them and act justly, not Zen in the pure sense but Zen, as I have been most of my life till I read Tricycle last month on rigorous thought on sexual perversions in the monastery and teacher-student relationship. When in doubt of what is occuring, speak on justice or on faint issues of remorse when the timing occurs, but when you are in doubt as remorse tinklings bring us to, then speak and clarity will come. Speaking any way, when in doubt, is the first step towards justice, The Dalai Lama reportedly has said in press conferences and in one slight teaching that was removed ten days after it was published in May of 1977.
