A Hypocrite In General & In Particular

There are no part time hypocrites but you are a hypocrite in general and in particular until the day if ever you see the light and repent to pay attention to make effort to correct yourself.
Even those who think they are good do not realize the Buddha is referring to them when he said the person of no integrity is a person of no integrity in his friendship, in the way he wills (he always wills for the stress of others with his stylish speech & behavior that stresses others), the way he gives advice, the way he speaks (with style), the way he acts (with style), the views he holds & the way he gives a gift.
As the Buddha said, there is no way a person of no integrity (a hypocrite) can tell the non hypocrite from a hypocrite but the person who is not a hypocrite (me) can know who is and is not a hypocrite in every instance.
A person is a hypocrite in GENERAL if he speaks with a style because:
a) His style that differs from others but is extremely consistent or a trademark in him cannot be freshly composed for each occasion but must be rehashed old hat impersonally standardized by rote as cleverly faked live. If you are faking live, rehashing from the past, you are a hypocrite.
b) Because you cannot stress, make restless or distract your listener without speaking with style, without stretching your syllables, changing speed and loudness in your individual way, whenever you speak with style you either consciously or unconsciously (in denial) want to stress, make restless and distract your listener that belies whatever fine words or truth that you may say and therefore you are a hypocrite.
c) Because style is meaningless, does not add one ounce of meaning to what he says, he cannot mean what is meaningless when he speaks with style and therefore a person who speaks with style can never fully mean what he says because his ever present style is meaningless.
d) Because his style is meant to deceive, impress, please, intimidate and dominate and he seldom if ever tells his listener that he wants to deceive, impress, please or intimidate or dominate him, he is a hypocrite. For instance when a person speak enthusiastically about his new car, he does say I want you to be impressed by my car, I want you to be jealous or envious.
A person is a hypocrite in PARTICULAR if he says THINGS that he does not mean to deceive, impress, please, intimidate or dominate.
For instance an employee will learn to ask his boss about his golf game not because he is interested in golf but just to please his boss and get on his good books.
When you threaten someone (eg I will report you) without intention to do so, you are saying something false to intimidate him and you are a hypocrite.
When you thank me that imply you are appreciative for emails that you did not appreciate because you deleted without reading, you do not mean your thanks and therefore are a hypocrite.
When you are sarcastic, you mean the opposite of what you say and therefore you a hypocrite. For instance when you say “You are so smart” when you mean you are such an idiot, you are a hypocrite.
When you joke or try to be funny you cannot mean what you say and therefore you are a hypocrite. Because people joke all the time, try to say things in a ‘humorous’ way they severely underestimate their hypocrisy.
Whenever a person tells a lie (and ordinary people severely underestimate the amount of lying they are guilty of) or gives an excuse, he is practicing hypocrisy.
THUS WHEN YOU TELL LIES, GIVE EXCUSES, CRACK A JOKE OR ARE SARCASTIC YOU ARE BEING A HYPOCRITE.
WHENEVER THE MATTER OF WHAT YOU SAY IS NOT TRUE OR THE BASIS OF WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY BUT YOUR INTENTION OF SAYING IT IS TO DECEIVE, IMPRESS, PLEASE, INTIMIDATE OR DOMINATE, YOU ARE THEN BEING A HYPOCRITE IN THAT PARTICULAR INSTANCE.
WHENEVER THE STYLE (EG ANGRY, LUSTFUL, CHARMING, SAD) OR WAY OF YOUR SPEECH IS INTENDED TO DECEIVE (SOUND ANGRY BUT NOT REALLY ANGRY), IMPRESS, PLEASE, INTIMIDATE OR DOMINATE, YOU ARE BEING A HYPOCRITE IN GENERAL.
HYPOCRISY IN GENERAL PERTAINS TO THE WAY OR STYLE OF SPEECH WHILST HYPOCRISY IN PARTICULAR PERTAINS TO THE SUBSTANCE OF THE SPEECH.
ALL ORDINARY PEOPLE WHO ALL HAVE STYLES ARE HYPOCRITES IN GENERAL AND THEY ARE ALSO HYPOCRITES IN PARTICULAR BECAUSE IT CAN BE OBJECTIVELY PROVEN THAT THEY ARE HYPOCRITES IN PARTICULAR INSTANCES OF WHAT THEY SAY.
Here again below I am preaching from the Teaching of the Buddha as few if any Buddhist leaders let alone Buddhists have done:
Cula-Punnama Sutta
The Shorter Discourse on the Full-moon Night
"Monks, could a person of no integrity know of a person of no integrity: 'This is a person of no integrity'?"
"No, lord."
"Good, monks.'
"Could a person of no integrity know of a person of integrity: 'This is a person of integrity'?"
"No, lord."
"Good, there's no way.'
"A person of no integrity is a person of no integrity in his friendship, in the way he wills, the way he gives advice, the way he speaks, the way he acts, the views he holds & the way he gives a gift.
"And how is a person of no integrity endowed with qualities of no integrity? He is lacking in conviction, conscience, concern [for the results of unskillful actions]; he is unlearned, lazy, of muddled mindfulness & poor discernment.”
"He has as his companions, people who are lacking in conviction, conscience, lacking in concern, lazy, of muddled mindfulness & poor discernment.
"He wills for his own & the affliction of others.
"He gives advice for his own or the affliction of others.
"He tells lies, engages in divisive tale-bearing, harsh speech, idle chatter.
"He takes life, steals, engages in illicit sex.
"He holds a view like this: 'There is nothing given, nothing offered, nothing sacrificed. There is no result of good or bad actions. There is no this world or next world, no mother, no father, no spontaneously reborn beings; no contemplatives who, practicing rightly, proclaim this world & the next after realized it for themselves.'
"He gives a gift inattentively, not with his own hand, disrespectfully, as if throwing it away, with the view that nothing will come of it.
"Now, monks, could a person of integrity know of a person of no integrity?"
"Yes, lord."
"Good, monks.'
"Could a person of integrity know of a person of integrity: 'This is a person of integrity'?"
"Yes, lord."
"Good, monks.'
"A person of integrity is a person of integrity in his friendship, the way he wills, gives advice, speaks & acts, the views he holds, & the way he gives a gift.
"A person of integrity is endowed with conviction, conscience, concern; he is learned, with aroused persistence, unmuddled mindfulness & good discernment."
"He has, as his friends & companions, those contemplatives endowed with conviction, conscience, concern; who are learned, unmuddled mindfulness & good discernment.
"He wills neither for his own nor the affliction of others.
"He gives advice neither for his own nor the affliction of others.
"He refrains from lies, divisive tale-bearing, harsh speech, idle chatter.
"He refrains from taking life, stealing, illicit sex.
"He holds a view like this: 'There is what is given, what is offered, what is sacrificed. There are fruits & results of good & bad actions. There is this world & the next world. There is mother & father. There are spontaneously reborn beings; there are contemplatives who, practicing rightly, proclaim this world & the next after realized it for themselves.'
"He gives a gift attentively, with his own hand, respectfully, not as if throwing it away, with the view that something will come of it.
"This person of integrity, after death, reappears in the destination of people of integrity. And what is the destination? Greatness among devas or among human beings."
GOING UNDERCOVER:
PEOPLE ARE NOT AFRAID TO SPEAK AGAINST ME BUT FEARFUL TO SPEAK AGAINST JESUS BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHO HE IS AND ARE FEARFUL FOR THEIR LIVES BUT THEY ARE NOT AFRAID OF ME BECAUSE THEY THINK I AM A NOBODY. BUT JUST AS KINGS CAN PUT ON ORDINARY CLOTHES AND GO OUT INTO THE STREETS TO HEAR WHAT HIS SUBJECTS ARE TRULY SAYING ABOUT HIM, IT MAY BE THAT I AM JUST A MISTER SO AND SO OR IT MAY BE THAT I AM SOMEONE EXTRAORDINARY THAT YOU SPEAK AGAINST AT YOUR OWN RISK. REMEMBER JESUS SAID THAT WHAT YOU DID TO THE LEAST OF ME YOU DID IT TO ME. EVEN IF I AM THE LEAST OF GOD YOU ARE DOING TO GOD WHAT YOU ARE DOING TO ME.
THE BUDDHA SAYS I AM A RARE PERSON: A person who preaches the Teaching and Discipline declared by the Thus Gone One is rare in the world. BY HIS CRITERIA I AM A NOBLE PERSON BECAUSE I HAVE ABANDONED STRESS (BY NOT CONSTANTLY ADDING EXTRA FORCE TO WHAT I SAY OR DO) AND RESTLESSNESS (BY PRACTICING CONSTANCY IN SPEED AND LOUDNESS), I EFFORTLESSLY NEITHER LIKE NOR DISLIKE (BY NOT ALLOWING MY MENTAL FORCE TO UNDULATE OR RISE UNABATED IN SPEED AND STRENGTH), I GAIN CONCENTRATION EASILY, SLEEP WELL, WAKE EASILY AND DREAM NO EVIL DREAMS. THEREFORE WHEN YOU SPEAK AGAINST ME, YOU ARE SPEAKING AGAINST SOMEONE WHO IS CONSIDERIED NOBLE BY THE BUDDHA WITH COMENSURATELY GRAVER CONSEQUENCES THAN SPEAKING AGAINST ORDINARY PEOPLE.
THE BUDDHA SAID HE HIMSELF HAD BEEN THE ALL POWERFUL ONE FOR SEVEN EONS. ONLY HE COULD BECOME SELF ENLIGHTENED. EVEN HIS DEPUTIES HAD TO BE GUIDED TO ENLIGHTENMENT BY HIM. JESUS SAID THAT ALL THE FATHER HAS IS HIS. IT MAY BE THAT WHEN THE FATHER DECIDES TO PUT AN END TO ALL EXISTING TO BECOME A BUDDHA, JESUS WILL BECOME THE FATHER JUST AS FATHERS PASS THEIR THRONES TO THEIR SONS. THEREFORE GOD OR THE FATHER MAY BE MUCH CLOSER TO THE BUDDHA THAN YOU WERE EVER TO GOD AND IT IS PRESUMPTUOUS TO DISMISS THE BUDDHA WHO SAID HE IS EVEN HIGHER THAN GOD. HOW DO YOU KNOW GOD DISAGREES WITH THE BUDDHA’S ASSERTION?
