-CRITICISM
This was an artist who put all their efforts, but he was constantly beaten by criticism of art connoisseurs. To learn to overcome this frustration, went to seek help from a teacher known for his great wisdom.
The teacher, seeing the artist is recommended: Visit a cemetery and utter all kinds of insults and invective at the dead of the place. This done, he must return to tell what had happened. When the artist did as he asked the teacher, had to admit that nothing happened, despite shouting all kinds of insults and grievances.
Then the teacher asked the artist to go to the cemetery again, but this time the dead had to shout all the accolades that come to mind. The boy did as he asked the teacher. Shouted all sorts of praise for hours, but had to return the teacher to tell where they actually had not happened.
"Yes, replied the old master. So you should be indifferent as death to insults and flattery of the world, because today I am flattered you can insult, and who insults you today tomorrow you can flatter. Do not be like a leaf in the wind of the compliments and insults. Stay in yourself, beyond the light and dark of the world. "

LAS CR�TICAS
Se trataba de un artista que pon�a todo su empe�o, pero que se sent�a constantemente abatido por las cr�ticas de los conocedores del arte. Para aprender a superar esta frustraci�n, fue a buscar la ayuda de un maestro conocido por su gran sabidur�a.
El maestro, al ver al artista le recomend� lo siguiente: Visitar un cementerio y proferir toda clase de insultos e improperios a los muertos del lugar. Hecho esto, deb�a volver para relatar que hab�a ocurrido. Cuando el artista hizo lo que pidi� el maestro, tuvo que reconocer que no ocurri� nada, pese a gritar toda clase de ofensas e agravios.
Luego el maestro pidi� al artista que fuera nuevamente al cementerio, pero en esta ocasi�n deb�a gritar a los muertos todos los elogios que vinieran a su mente. El joven hizo lo que pidi� el maestro. Grit� toda clase de halagos durante horas, pero tuvo que volver donde el maestro para contar que en realidad, tampoco hab�a ocurrido nada.
“Si, Contest� el viejo maestro. As� debes ser t�, INDIFERENTE COMO UN MUERTO A LOS INSULTOS y HALAGOS DEL MUNDO, porque el que hoy te halaga ma�ana te puede insultar, y quien hoy te insulta ma�ana te puede halagar. No seas como una hoja a merced del viento de los halagos e insultos. Permanece en Ti mismo, m�s all� de los claros y los oscuros del mundo.”
