Premanand Maharaj Ji
I chant the Name but slip into criticising others when I talk with people. What should I do?
Decide not to hear or speak ninda
When someone starts criticising another person, you can tell them to speak about themselves and you instead, and stay silent. We will neither hear nor speak ninda, and purity will begin to come into your dealings.
By talking about someone's faults we cannot reform them, nor can you. Talk of criticising someone, of someone's sins, of hurting someone, we will neither listen to nor speak.
