In Hua Hu Ching by Hua Ching Ni, 1995, chapter 15, Lao Tzu stated:
"...Kind Prince, tolerance is a necessary virtue in everyone's daily life,
but for an integral being there is nothing that needs to be tolerated or
labeled as tolerance. Tolerance exists only in the relative sphere.
Why is this? If someone does something unpleasant to us, we need to
gather our strength to bear it; it is a difficult and disagreeable situation.
However, if you have risen above the relative concepts of the mind,
there is no self or others, no longevity or brevity, no life or death in
your mind, so there is no hatred or resentment. What, then, is the
necessity for tolerance?
Kind prince, a person who is highly evolved leaves behind all concept
of individuality and extends impersonal love to include all existence.
Dissolving individuality enables one to free oneself from the entangling
discriminations of form, language, sense perception, feeling and all
other relative conditions. It allows one's true being to grow freely
without the hindrance of attachment. When the mind is attached to
something, it can hold little more than self created pain. One who is
highly evolved, therefore, is attached to nothing and does not depend
on any particular mental concept or form in his relations with people or
in serving them. His very being benefits all life.
To an integral being, all form is equal to that which is formless. All life
is equal to all non-life. Kind prince, this is the reality of the universe..."
