If, having merely the appearance of a practitioner, one does not investigate one’s own mistakes, it is possible to act contrary to the Dharma. Therefore, constantly examining one’s own errors and abandoning them is the Bodhisattvas’ practice.
Modern Translation
A Bodhisattva’s Daily Practice
(31)
A bodhisattva’s practice is continually
to examine our self-deception and then rid ourselves of it,
Because, if we do not examine our self-deception ourselves,
It’s possible that with a Dharmic (external) form
We can commit something non-Dharmic.– The Berzin Archives Thirty-seven Bodhisattva Practices
“Self-deception”?!! Michael, we both know damn well that I’m PERFECT. Sheesh. What’s your point? 🙂
