The more evil comes from him, the more good shall go from me.

Excerpt

And the Buddha said: "If a man foolishly does me wrong, I will return to him the protection of my ungrudging love; the more evil comes from him, the more good shall go from me; the fragrance of goodness always comes to me, and the harmful air of evil goes to him."

✨ To meditate on today

According to The Gospel of Buddha, the Buddha answers the one who wrongs him with ungrudging love: goodness spreads like a fragrance, while evil falls back on the one who commits it, like a heavy air that does not leave its author. Today, if someone hurts you, offer them in return a word or a gesture of kindness, without waiting for them to change.
