People will throw filth answer them by throwing it
back, in your own way.
How so ever we may assume that people
around us will be sensible to a satisfactory level but in reality most of them
are not. Idealistically we should be living in a paradise, where everyone is
generous with each other. But unfortunately earth is not that paradise; I am
not suggesting that every one is mean. But some people may unnecessarily
interfere without any valid reason.
Most of the times these loose comments of
other people’s perception on us perturb us. We need to introspect that, do we
really have a control over what these people perceive us? We have a control
over our behavior; what others do is beyond our reach. Some one may be rude to
us but can we really take away the rudeness out of that person. Do we think we
are so capable? Well no, we neither can inoculate any goodness in anyone; nor
can we take away the badness, we just can influence it. Rest is the journey of
the individual.
If we don’t have a control over other’s
behavior then why should we worry or even feel bad about their opinion. We can
try our best to be virtuous and keep improving ourselves but being a slave to
others opinion will lead to our downfall. No one can satisfy every body, there
will be people who may see things in their own prism. If you believe in
yourself and want to continue that way, then don’t get influenced by others.
I am not suggesting that you ignore every
criticism, but choose which criticism is has a weight to being considered.
Retaliating, being loud, seeking vengeance for others deeds will make things
worse. Knowingly, unknowingly you are paying heed to them and they are being
successful in irritating you.
Be yourself and ignore nasty words that
have been said to demoralize you. If people throw filth throw it back by not
reacting to it. If you react their mission will be accomplished. Easier said
then done, but if you will be able to do it then so many problems will be
solved for you. People some times speak out nasty words for their own
insecurities, envy, belittlement, make you do things their own way, and their incapability
to match you. Don’t fall in their trap by reacting to them; throw it back by
not reacting to it even tacitly.
Lord Krishna, has lead our way in handling
these concept. Some people called him by different ugly names, for example, he
was called raanchod (person who ran
away from a battle out of fear). During those times cowardice was so shameful
that it was worse then death. Krishna was unmoved by this name and happily
embraced it. All the efforts of his critics were in vain but though he embraced
the name but he still became the greatest warrior. Listening to something does
not necessarily mean that you believe in it.
If some one throws filth then throw it back
by not being affected by it. Let them be happy saying what ever they think and
feel.
