Suggestions to Others

There are also two kinds of suggestions that one makes to others. One suggestion is that which one makes to another person to help him to be cured of an illness, or to help him to improve his life or his character. And the other is the suggestion one makes out of foolishness or out of ignorance of its effect. For instance someone says in fun to a friend, "I will shoot you today." It is a joke, but he does not know what effect that joke can have upon his friend. One easily says by way of a joke, "You will go bankrupt if you do so, if you go on spending like this," or, "Do you wish to die? You will surely have an accident." One simply says it, not realizing what effect it could have, sooner or later, upon the other. Sometimes in order to show one's friendship a person says, "But how weak you look! You are very run down. You can't be feeling well!" These suggestions often make a person ill.
