________________ HARSH WORDS AND TOLERANCE 1. Even an ordinary man can tolerate the acute pain of a sharp thorn if he has the hope of getting wealth, status, a woman, kingdom, grandeur, etc. as a reward. 2. Truly lofty is the person who tolerates the pain of thorn like harsh words, simply considering forgiveness to be his ideal and the means of attaining liberation. Dasavaikalika Sutra (Chapter 9/3, verses 6-7) MOHAN 0562-266241 dain Educa terakone www.jainelibrary.org
