Whoever you see isn't human, but a fraud;
Whatever people say isn't right, but just lies.
So, since these days there's no one you can trust,
you'd better live alone and stay free.
If your actions conform with the Dharma, you'll antagonize everyone;
If you're words are truthful, most people will get angry;
If your mind is truly good and pure, they will judge it as a defect;
Now is time to keep your own way hidden.
Patrul Rinpoche
Heart Treasure of the Enlightened Ones
Verses 15, 16
