St Benedict is ruthless against murmuring.God Himself was revealed as fearsome against the murmurers, especially during the 40 years of the desert crossing. The experience of community life teaches that sometimes even the good and simple end up suffering the unhappy influence of these murmurers. It should further be pointed out that one can also murmur with the heart or with the simple frown of one's face, without opening one's mouth. These hidden murmurers, too , in no way escape the judment of Him who searches hearts.

Here the murmurers are those who spread rumour, destroy the peace of the community, spread division in the convent.

( Advice from my confessor: if we are insulted unreasonably by others, and we want an outlet to express our anger, we can talk to our closest friend or relatives. But the grumble should not be repeated again and again. We should forgive. The best way to express your anger is to talk to God in your own cell, where nobody can hear you. You can write diary. Ask God to guide you in your writing. Forgive, improve ,be more mature and grow up, learn from a lesson, from your anger and pains)
