This awareness of emotion is like the sun, which eliminates darkness. When you are aware of the emotion, it becomes powerless.

—Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, “Meditating with Beethoven”

B The sin of vilifying a sage is immeasurable. How much more if one is vilifying a Bodhisattva. However, the sin of vilifying a Vajrayana yogi is even more dangerous. Moreover, we do not know who is a sage who settle in inner yoga. That is why aside from the perfect enlightened Buddha, any ordinary beings will not know other ordinary beings. Gossiping on people's good and evil, making slander, and destroying people's fame will only sweep away our merits. Observing other's faults will undoubtedly destroy ourselves.

Therefore, investigating and be vigilant on our faults are most important.

His Holiness 17th Gyalwang Karmapa Orgyen Thrinley Dorje's teaching on "Guru Yoga."
