I overhead this conversation between the jay and the bat early this morning:
What does blame do? Makes victim and oppressor.
What does blame hide? The pain of both.
How is blame dissolved? Forgiveness of self and the other; love of self and the other; gratefulness.
If you can just appreciate each thing, one by one, then you will have pure gratitude - Suzuki Roshi -
