Fire with Water
    #21908094 - 07/07/15 01:42 AM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Hi all - here's an idea. When you feel anger in another person during conversation, try and remember to fight fire with water. Practice the deep zazen breath, collect your words carefully and then speak with all the kindness one can muster. This other person will respond in unexpected ways (more than not it is favourably).

Fight fire (anger) with water (peace): think about it... water extinguishes the fire and vapour fills the air. Condensation leads to precipitation and both sides become a part of the ever growing pool - now both flow along the cool stream of compassion. It is a gradual process, but the world can be changed with the most simple of words (either good and bad). Choose your path wisely and devote all your being to it. Become the tender heart and then watch as true beauty unfolds.

:peace:
