People often use the phrase to describe those who turn a blind eye to bad behavior. It turns out there is a pretty interesting story behind it, though. The saying comes from an old Buddhist parable. The parable tells the story of three monkeys whose teacher ordered them not to see, hear, or speak evil. Each monkey tries to follow these directions, but they eventually fail. This story is meant to teach people awareness of their surroundings and not turning a blind eye to bad things.
