It's Easy To Blame The World... But What About You?
In this episode I recount how reading a verse from the Dhammapada made me rethink a situation and push me to take more accountability for my own actions, inactions and miscommunications. "The fault of others is easily perceived, but that of oneself is difficult to perceive; a man winnows his neighbour's faults like chaff, but his own fault he hides, as a cheat hides the bad die from the gambler." Chapter 18 (Impurity) Verse 252 - The Dhammapada as translated by Muller (1881)
