Whatever situation you are in, do not try to blame others. Listen well. Do not go blaming others, or you will become a person worthy of blame. Try to look at your own faults and look at others with mercy. Don’t be judgmental. When you look at others, you should observe yourself at the same time. The mind is wild, always thinking of things and causing disruption for meditation. The reason most people fail at meditation is that they are busy finding things to blame and mouth off. The Kilesa running wild in their minds only create more Kilesa. So you have to get rid of them from your minds. Keep this in mind.
