Is it possible to be free of the known immediately? You have insulted or flattered me. When there is flattery, I am pleased, and I hold on to it, cultivate it. When you insult me, I also cultivate that. To drop the hurt and flattery immediately, as it takes place, demands a great deal of attention, awareness as you are being insulted, to know that you are insulted, not to react, and to know what the other says about you is true, to see the whole picture, understand it completely and end it as it takes place.
