The sly man is not a cunning man. He doesn’t deceive others. Being a sly man is not being a little smart ass.
The sly man knows that work on oneself is work on himself, not on others. The sly man knows that it is pointless and fruitless to try to correct others. The sly man only corrects himself.
The sly man doesn’t judge others’s negative attitudes or behaviours. The sly man knows through work on himself that he is filled as much as others with negative attitudes or behaviours, sometimes even worse than others.
The sly man doesn’t criticize others’s opinions, philosophy or religion.
The sly man knows that all philosophy or religion bear some truth worthy of attention.
The sly man doesn’t show off with his knowledge. He knows that he doesn’t know anything.
The sly man is seeking the Truth. He’s not trying to know the “truth” of the “behind the scenes” of the political or social games, about which he couldn’t care less.
The sly man knows he is going to die. He reminds himself constantly about it, so he doesn’t forget.
The sly man knows that he is not going to “save the world”.
The sly man strives to achieve peace, harmony and freedom within so that he can share peace, harmony and freedom with others.
In Silence...
