Stop the Battle

Edited extract from a talk at the Master Session 2000 - the afternoon session on 5 November.

For goodness sake, stop the battle, the fight, the struggle to overcome.

If you’re endeavouring to overcome your self, you’re fighting a losing battle. As soon as you oppose your self, it gets strength from that and reacts defensively.

If you start accusing and blaming people they will rear up immediately, like the self. Even if they don’t want to defend themselves, the self will react and you’ll have another battle, another argument - another feeding of your self.

So will you stop accusing and blaming your partner, or anyone, and instead ask them an intelligent question?
