    Of course I forget to quote KVJ, which is likely the source of the misapprehension.

    Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

    Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

    If we were to attempt to be lawyers about the dharma, we might be under the impression that the brother or neighbor sins against him daily, and that the deal is up after only seven days.

    Lawyers will never find the dharma. They'll need to reincarnate and try again.
