The Provoking Reflections

“A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?”

― Albert Einstein

‘Someone‘ said ‘something‘ to You 
and 
You got provoked.

An insult, an abuse, an illicit behavior, 
or an explicit wording…
And you got hurt.

Have you closely observed Yourself…

Who got hurt every time by others?

Who are these “others”?

Are you that weak that a mere few words by a person who doesn’t know what he is saying can hurt You, Your emotions, and Your feelings?

Do you know who you are?

Beyond thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

Can anyone hurt you?

Equanimity is calm and composed amidst stress and provocation.

It’s not said that you accept the unacceptable behavior of others as it is, but before reacting, first, calm yourself and watch the reality of the person who is provoking you, his intentions, upbringing, his level of thought, situation, his problem, her level of stress, and his status of depression.

After that, respond to the person, instead of reacting, in whatever way you want, and say whatever comes to your mind spontaneously.

But 
Remember, They are A Being, and So You Are.

And

Both are the manifestation of the same source. They are not separate from you but merely reflect you in another body. The bodies are different, but the original is the same.

I.e., You.
