       TO COMMENT ON OTHERS BEHIND THEIR BACK IS A SERIOUS KARMA OF
       SPEECH

       Caller:  Master Lu, you mentioned that “One is half way to
       achieving Buddhahood when he is able to  guard himself from
       creating karma of speech”.  May I ask if karma of speech
       includes making comments about others behind their back?
       Master Jun Hong Lu:  That’s for sure.
       Caller:  So, it means, regardless of whether the other party is
       in the right or wrong, we shouldn’t make judgements about them,
       is that right?
       Master Jun Hong Lu:  Unless your intention is to help him, only
       then you can make a comment about them.  Otherwise, if you do
       so, you are generating negative energy.  If your intention is to
       help him and you talk to him face-to-face, this is positive
       energy, and as such it is not considered as creating karma of
       speech.  For example, I am ready to help a person today.  How
       can I avoid commenting on him? Do you regard this as creating
       karma of speech, then? On the other hand, if I am not with the
       person concerned today but I made some sharp statements and
       talked behind his back, it is then considered to be creating
       karma of speech.
