Hi Rose, Could you relate to us your experience when attempting to apply the principle to some particular situation in your life? > I seem to be able to *manage* it with small issues, but with big issues...wow, it's difficult. Can you give us an example of a 'big issue' which you find hard to manage with that worldview. > Could you say more about it? What I'd really like is get some real life (possibly extreme?) examples of how this has worked out (peace of mind) for you maybe, or for others. Can you cite a big issue with which you have found difficulty applying the principle to? > To my western mind, the idea that *it* is not the other persons fault/problem is kinda counterintuitive. But I can see the potential for peace of mind in getting out of this particular habit of mind. Indeed, the contentious, self-righteous Judeo-Christian mind-set is extremely difficult to erase. > This has been swimming around in my brain for days now, so anyone, if you have any thoughts, that'd be great! And I don't really mean just soundbites and corny one liners, I mean actual examples from your life. > Thanks Rose Rose, IMO, the best point to start with is with some particular situation in your life.
