Criticisms

 

Once a friend of mine from Chennai took one of his doves from his house with him when he went to Bangalore. For identification he put a small copper ring around its legs. When he was leaving Bangalore for Chennai after the completion of his work, he left the dove in Bangalore. He was a fast driver and he had only a tea break on the high way before reaching Chennai. When he reached home to his surprise he saw the same dove with the copper ring at his house.

There is a proverb in English, criticisms are like a tamed dove that always comes back to you. Our loving Jesus is warning us not to criticize. It's a thought-provoking analogy to relate it to the proverb about criticisms. The proverb suggests that criticisms or negative judgments we make about others often come back to us in the same form. It serves as a reminder to be mindful of our words and actions, recognizing that they can have consequences and impact not only on others but on ourselves as well.

Religious and philosophical teachings emphasize the importance of kindness, empathy, and refraining from judgment or criticism. These teachings encourage individuals to treat others with compassion and understanding, promoting harmony and goodwill. If you find wisdom and inspiration in the proverb about criticisms, you may choose to reflect on it as a reminder to cultivate a compassionate and non-judgmental attitude towards others. By doing so, you can foster positive relationships and contribute to a more harmonious and supportive community.
