“This slogan is connected to gossip. Indulging in gossip can be a means of feeling more secure through shared opinions. Practitioners of Mind Training take responsibility for their own states of mind, and regard the mindstates of others as none of their business. They know that even if they believe that they have clearly seen to the heart of situations, this does not give them the right to offer that insight to others.”
