Itโs true that in our life, we donโt get all the people of our liking and choice, but cannot go with the theory of Jungian. There are many kind hearted saints and spiritual leaders got many people in their life who tried to put them down, disown them. For instance, Sant Tukaram wife so much rude and arrogant with him.
The people around us by birth are not our choice. The class mates in school / colleges are not of our choice. All people around us can be difficult or easy going, it's a destiny - Karma theory. Another point is that "difficult people" are from our point of view and understanding. It's how do we see people speaks more about it.
Personally, if I am in a situation, where people around me makes me uncomfortable, I just try to drive more positive within me by prayers, deep breathing and thanks god for everything in my life. Many such situations are temporary and does not remain for long.
Summarising, it's our internal landscape, belief, formation takes a call for us what is difficult and easy for us๐
Broaden the heart with and welcome everything in life with broad smile๐

Very Beautiful conversation. Here i recollect 2 incidence of the conversations related to plating / Farming.
At one of the community land on the outskirt of Mumbai, a Enthuaistic Guy will travel from Mumbai regularly and give his shramdan in planting seeds of flowers and fruits. He was doing this with immense joy, When the flowers start blooing and trees start giving fruits, he start sharing on social medias largely.
Another incidence I met a couple from Europe at an Ashram near Vajreshwari. They were here for their spiritual journey. Their guru asked them to do shramdan as long as they are here, so they started working in the farm with innovative ideas and also to grow organic vegetables, fruits and whatsover the land can give. During conversation, I asked if the plan to settle here and gradually buy land. They were surprised with my question, but responded humbly "we are here for spiritual journey and following the path suggested by Guru. The shramdan we are doing is our offering to guru and the community near by. We will keep on doing until guruji asked us to do something else". Their response came to me as a big surprise where everything around is a transaction and here its a pure faith and humble selflessness.
According to me the 1st case is itself is a beautiful expression of an act but publisizing possibly adding a layer of uglyness. The second case is pure and humble expression of love towards Guruji.
The humbleness and acceptance with faith can help gradually in detaching.
Wonderful passage ๐
Many a time despite knowing ourselves fully, we tend to be responsive based on what others think about us.
This also teach of practising fully to be fear free from all the clutches.
Wishing everyone happy reading and reflections.๐ผ
