shortcomings.

When you see someone surpass you in some points, you should
be delighted and praise him/her from your heart; just as when
others have luminosity, you will share some brightness as well.
If instead, you are jealous, you have already had darkness in
your heart.

105.

One must conduct oneself in an open-minded manner, being

tolerant in all respects; and as a matter of course, one will gain
respect from others. When you give way to others in one way,
others will give you respect in another.

106.
Practicing the Buddhist teaching means you have to put what
you learn into action rather than just reading or thinking without
doing; you are practicing while you are doing something.

107.

When one is earnest, bears a keen sense of responsibility,

industrious and courageous in doing work and has it done well,
he/she naturally earns praise and respect from superiors.
Bybeing emptyat any time, you can light up your wisdom.

Diamond Sutra ---- A New Translation (http://www.diamond-sutra.com/

index.html )15

Alex Johnson

Chapter 27.
"However, Subhuti, if you think that the Buddha realizes the highest, most
fulfilled, and awakened mind and does not need to have all the marks, you are
mistaken. Subhuti, do not think in that way. Do not think that when one gives rise
to the highest, most fulfilled, and awakened mind, one needs to see all objects of
mind as nonexistent, cut off from life. Please do not think in that way. One who
gives rise to the highest, most fulfilled, and awakened mind does not contend that
all objects of mind are nonexistent and cut off from life. That is not what I say."(1)

109

Chapter 28.
The lord Buddha continued:
"Subhuti, if someone gives treasures equal to the number of sands on the shores
of the Ganges river, and if another, having realized the egolessness of all things,
thereby understands selflessness, the latter would be more blessed than the one
who practiced external charity. Why? Because great disciples do not see blessings
and merit as a private possession, as something to be gained."
Subhuti inquired of the lord Buddha, "What do you mean 'great disciples do not
see blessings and merit as a private possession'?"
The Buddha replied:
"Because those blessings and merit have never been sought after by those great
disciples, they do not see them as private possessions, but they see them as the
common possession of all beings."(2)

Chapter 29.
The Buddha said:
"Subhuti, if any person were to say that the Buddha is now coming or going, or
sitting up or lying down, they would not have understood the principle I have
been teaching. Why? Because while the expression 'Buddha' means 'he who has
thus come, thus gone,' the true Buddha is never coming from anywhere or going
anywhere. The name 'Buddha' is merely an expression, a figure of speech."(3)

Chapter 30.
The lord Buddha resumed:

110

"Subhuti, if any good person, either man or woman, were to take 3,000 galaxies
and grind them into microscopic powder and blow it into space, what do you
think, would this powder have any individual existence?"
"Subhuti replied, "Yes, lord, as a microscopic powder blown into space, it might
be said to have a relative existence, but as you use words, it has no existence. The
words are used only as a gure of speech. Otherwise the words would imply a
belief in the existence of matter as an independent and self-existent thing, which
it is not. (4)"
"Furthermore, when the Most Honored One refers to the '3,000 galaxies,'
he could only do so as a figure of speech. Why? Because ifthe 3,000 galaxies
really existed, their only reality would consist in their cosmic unity. Whether as
microscopic powder or as galaxies, what does it matter? Only in the sense of the
cosmic unity of ultimate being can the Buddha rightfully refer to it."
The lord Buddha was very pleased with this reply and said:
"Subhuti, although ordinary people have always grasped after an arbitrary
conception of matter and galaxies, the concept has no true basis; it is an
illusion of the mortal mind. (5) Even when it is referred to as 'cosmic unity' it is
unthinkable and unknowable. (6)"
