It is not proper for us to wish or insist on always having our way. We want to live according to God's wishes. In that case we must welcome and use all the incidences ( that arise from variety of causes ) to dismantle our ego, insistences, understanding and old habits. This is what means when we say" every incident is a form of a guru". We must develop the inner eye to evaluate the value and place of these incidents in development of our lives. Only then we will not have the inclination to judge the propriety of the actions of others in ordinary worldly affairs. To expect anything else from others, shows our own ignorance. It is definitely not possible for them to have the same understanding of standard and purpose of life like us. We must reject to take part in any action that obstructs our path of development and causes disturbances in the mind. Separate your self. Remind your mind that it is not proper for it to think in this way. If we continue to remind ourselves this, at every encounter and incident with others, then you will not have the opportunity to get uneasy and unhappy. We will not think about the just or unjust actions of others. The only way we need to evaluate and think (about incidents ) is whether it helps in progress and development of our lives or not. We must reject any other way of evaluations with our heart.
