A free mind is a mind that is open to everything and
attached to nothing. Most people spend much of their time looking for
reasons to be offended. An open mind is never offended because it is
free of any attachments.
|
It is never the self that is offended but always the
illusion that the self has of itself that is affected by insult! If you
can really understand this, deeply grasp it's truth, live it each day,
then pain will be no more.
|
Next time you 'feel' offended look closely within yourself
at yourself and ask yourself what was offended? If you remain aware you
will see that it was only an image of yourself which you had become
attached to, and that image did not resonate with the image contained in
the insult. If you weren't attached, if you didn't identify with the
wrong image of yourself then there would be no offence taken. You would
then remain free and therefore happy.
