Wait and see what happens to them


“寒山问拾得:世人有人谤我、欺我、辱我、笑我、轻我、贱我,我当如何处之?拾得曰:只要忍他、避他、由他、耐他、不要理他,再过几年,你且看他”


Master Han Shang had once asked Master Shi De: “People in the world slander me, bully me, insult me, laugh at me, belittle me and look down on me. What should I do about it?”
Master Shi De replied: “You only need to tolerate them, avoid them, let them be, be patient with them and never mind about them and then wait and see what happens to them a few years later!”
