### [82.85](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.82.85)

雖聞多惡名　苦行者忍之  
不應苦自言　亦不應起惱  
聞聲恐悑者　是則林中獸  
是輕躁眾生　不成出家法  
仁者當堪耐　下中上惡聲  
執心堅住者　是則出家法  
不由他人語　令汝成劫賊  
亦不由他語　令汝得羅漢  
如汝自知己　諸天亦復知

> Though he hears much ill repute, / the practitioner of austerities endures it.  
> He should not bitterly bewail himself, / nor should he give rise to affliction.  
> One who is terrified upon hearing sounds / is like a beast in the forest;  
> Such a flighty, restless sentient being / cannot accomplish the Dharma of leaving home.  
> A benevolent one should be able to withstand / harsh voices, whether low, middling, or high.  
> One who holds the mind firm and steadfast / embodies the Dharma of leaving home.  
> It is not by another's words / that you are made a bandit,  
> Nor is it by another's words / that you obtain arhatship.  
> As you know yourself, / so too do the gods know.
