That’s Right No One Humiliates, Offends etc. or Psychologically Harms Us
This may at times seem difficult to accept but, it is true.
The truth of the matter is what does the harm within us, is
not the other person’s words, actions, look, implications, gestures,
intentions, ideas, concepts, etc. but how our psychology receives, perceives,
reacts, interprets etc. those impressions.
Always, if our mind remains still in the face of someone
insulting us, we would not feel an inkling of hurt.
We feel hurt as soon as our mind moves or the subconscious
mind moves.
So, when we feel hurt by the words, apparent intent,
gestures, facial expressions, looks etc. of others we must firmly remind ourselves
that they are not hurting us, it is something in us that is hurting ourselves.

| Good point isn't it? When we are offended we always feel to be right in feeling that way or on the right side of teh issue. |
What About if they Physically Hit Us?
What happens if they hit us, yes that can not be denied they
threw a punch and it connected and it hurt. In a minute the pain subsides and
it is over. But what is not over is our mind replaying it and replaying and
hurting ourselves with a countless number of intense painful thoughts.
Such understanding allows us separation from pride,
self-love, resentment and therefore gives us space to work on these egos that
take such impressions deeply personally and hurtfully.
Psychological Responsibility
This is also responsibility for what happens within our psyche. Without understanding this we will always blame others for the hurt we feel and we will never be able to take control or command over our own psyche.
