There is no need to be critical, you know. If
someone says something opposite to your understanding, it will be a confirmation of your understanding. “Oh, that is your understanding.
I can understand why you understand reality in that way.” In this way, life of confrontation will become life of conformation, and you will have
absolute composure in your life. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 66-08-15d as found on shunryusuzuki.com.
