Transcript

00:00Saints have scolded a lot. In fact, even Buddha, who is commonly considered the epitome of poise and compassion,

00:07has been very, very harsh in his scoldings. He has used choicest words.

00:11Sometimes he has called you an ass, sometimes a pig. It is for the sake of compassion.

00:16And it is because those who run from the center of fear, sometimes require fear even to be helped.

00:24Suppose there is a patient, a diseased one in the spiritual sense.

00:28And what is his disease? His disease is that he works only through fear.

00:34Nothing can make him move or work except fear.

00:38Now you want to take this person to a doctor of spirituality.

00:43How do you take this man to the doctor?

00:47Therefore the saints scold. Like the benevolent grandfather, you know, who scolds you but nevertheless helps you.

00:54And he scolds you so that the need to be helped reduces.
