Speak. You use to argue with MP's aunt—I'm told. Now we are revealing everyone's faults. **B**: Uh, excuse me Master. This morning I have, uh... **Master**: **No, no let's go back** to the aunt. **B**: Yeah. It's about the arguments... I went to Starbucks and... **Master**: **No, no what about** the aunt? Forget about the Starbucks for now. **B**: Yeah, so. **Master**: **Did you argue with** the aunt? **B**: The aunt? Which? **Master**: Yeah, violently. **B**: Uh, Yeah. **Master**: Yeah? Yeah? I mean he says yeah. Eh, what else is new? Eh. **B**: I argued my entire life. I know it's wrong but I don't look at people's... **Master**: **So you're creating mouth karma by arguing with** the aunt. **B**: Exactly. So, my mistake I tried to fix it for years and years and I couldn't get over with it. **Master**: Okay. Never mind about years. **We talk about specifics.** Okay. We are not talking about yeah, I make a lot of mistakes. I'm so sorry. **NO!!!** **When you look at your own transgressions we are talking about which one / which ones... specifics.** **We are not talking about I'm so sorry.** Like Guo Yin who says I'm old. I created a lot of transgressions. I'm so sorry. NO!!! **When you look at your own transgressions it refers to which particular one we did. Is that clear? It's not theory.** It's not... I'm so sorry. I created a lot of offenses like B is about to do. Okay. **NO.** We talk about specifics. Before MP left, during her tenure at Lu Mountain Temple, I argued with her aunt a lot; we butt heads. We butted heads. Am I correct? We can't hear you. **B**: Correct. **Master**: **Double correct. Not just correct. And what did you do about it?** **B**: I... eventually, I prayed for my mistake. You know... That's about all I can do. **Master**: No, you pray that she would disappear on the face of the earth. **B**: Not really. I wouldn't. I wouldn't. **Master**: You pray that she would go away. **B**: I wouldn't, I wouldn't go that far Master. You know. The point that she left. Everybody left. I felt something is different at the house. **Master**: You feel better when she left. **B**: Nobody is arguing with me anymore. **Master**: **Oh, that's so much better. Life is so much happier. Ok, I hear you. Very good. Thank you for your contribution.** Terrible person.
