I like Judy Lief's summation in her commentary to this slogan: "This slogan points out that lojong applies to whatever we do, feel, think, or say. It is a way of bringing our whole system into harmony." That is what our life should be about. It is moderately easy when we are not facing difficulties, but to keep to this path when you are attacked from all sides is remarkable. Today I read the portrait of a man who embodies this harmony although he had to deal with all kinds of hardship and attacks from political enemies. He refuses to get angry or retaliate and he doesn't utter a bad word about the people who work against him. He just continues to do his job. I was very impressed when I read the article, and I think he is a living example of this slogan.
