Phonetic:
"Kol
ha'po'sel be'mu'mo po'sel."
Translation:
He who criticizes testifies to his own vice.
Meanings:
- When
one is focusing, mentioning or criticizing someone else's vice, by
doing so he is attesting to his own vice.
- Focusing
on someone else's vice usually derives from our familiarity with that
same vice - as being a part of us.
- Avoiding
criticism will help us focus on our fellowmen's positive qualities
instead of the negative ones. This will enable a better communication
by creating a constructive and encouraging force, allowing for spiritual
life of a higher level.
