The monks of a neighboring monasteryasked the Master’s help in a quarrelthat had arisen among them.
They hadheard the Master say he had a techniquethat was guaranteed to bring love andharmony to any group.
On this occasion he revealed it: “Anytime you are with anyone or think ofanyone you must say to yourself: I amdying and this person too is dying,attempting the while to experiencethe truth of the words you are saying.If every one of you agrees to practice this,bitterness will die out, harmonywill arise.”
Having said that, he was gone.
Anthony De Mello, SJ
