The Thirty-fifth Gate

The non-arising of ill-will is a gate of Dharma illumination; for [with it] we protect ourselves and protect others.

ill-will
hostile feeling; malevolence; enmity

Gatha:
May we, together with all beings
Be mindful of the arising of ill-will
That we may be loving, grateful and kind

May this offering bring peace to all beings
May our actions contribute to the harmony of The Universe
And, may all hearts and minds be opened to the present.
