27.63

A sūtra says: 'Seeing the faults of others, the mouth must not speak of them; having evil within oneself, one should expose it.' The [Confucian] books say: 'Hearing the faults of others is like hearing the names of one's parents: the ear may hear them, but the mouth must not speak them.' They also say: 'The gentleman reveals his faults.'
