Choice of Reference Point
A part of awakening or at least living a less psychologically
painful life is the conscious ability to choose one's reference point.
Example
Seeing someone eating something greasy and fatty we may say "How
can you eat that?" and we feel a little queasy.
This is seeing the person eating from our reference point
which is not correct. We have to see them from their reference point and then
we won't feel sick, disgusted, concerned, angry or worried etc. seeing them
eat.
To become more aware is to use our consciousness to chose the
right reference point. The reference point makes all the difference and as my
marvellous missionary says to choose is for the people who are awakening.
Conclusion
Take the reference point into account whenever in the vicinity
of people. Because we have the wrong reference point we suffer every daily when
it comes to dealing with people.
