雜譬喻經 1.32

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.32](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.207.1.32)

外國有住處，眾中有一道人，當眾僧淨地大行，更有一道人性多瞋恚，便以舌舐之用示眾人。雖欲彰人之罪，不知自惡其口。此明人好言他惡其喻若是，唯知彰人之罪，不知自毀其行也。

> In a foreign country there was a dwelling place. Among the assembly there was a man of the Way who defecated on the pure ground of the monastic saṃgha. There was another man of the Way who was prone to great anger, and he licked it with his tongue to display it to the assembly. Although he wished to make manifest the other person's offence, he did not realise that he was defiling his own mouth. This illustrates that when people are fond of speaking of others' evil, it is like this: they only know to expose another's fault, but do not realise that they are destroying their own conduct.
