The day you are different, others become different. And you will see them
differently, too. Someone who seemed terrifying will now seem frightened. Someone who seemed rude will seem frightened. All of a sudden, no one has the power to hurt you anymore. No one has the power to put pressure on you. You become truly happy, the essence of spirituality. You can do this by putting this program into action, a thousand times: (a) identify the negative feeling in you (b) understand that they are in you, not in the world, not in external reality (c) do not see them as an essential part of ‘I’. These things come and go. (d) understand that when you change, everything changes.
