It shows how one should look at criticisms or praise others make about Buddha, Dhamma, Sangha... Aim of this is essentially preventing those following the Path from getting distracted by praise/criticisms...Moreover, we can get a cue on how to look at/ respond to criticisims or praise that we get in day-to-day lives...<img src="http://kalyanamithra.web44.net/downloads/brahmajala_extract.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />No wonder a person following the Path develops tolerance to "Ata lo dahama"... <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" /> It is this tolerance that allows one to live a calm, peaceful life even in a turbulant envirnment...Here's the reference to the source; Brahmajala Sutta is the first sutta in this volume...Digha Nikaya - Silakkandha Vaggoindex: <a href="http://www.gautamabuddha.org/downloads/pdf/thripitaka/Deega_Nikya_1_part_01.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.gautamabuddha.org/downloads/pdf/thripitaka/Deega_Nikya_1_part_01.pdf</a>content: <a href="http://www.gautamabuddha.org/downloads/pdf/thripitaka/Deega_Nikya_1_part_02.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.gautamabuddha.org/downloads/pdf/thripitaka/Deega_Nikya_1_part_02.pdf</a>I feel that one should read at least one Sutta from the silakkandha vagga to see how virtuous the Sangha is...Supatipanno Bhagavatho Shrawaka Sango...
