MISUSE OF OUR THINGS BY OTHERS

If some soul has not behaved properly with us, meaning misusing our stuff without our permission when it is given to him for personal use; we should keep our composure and remain peaceful. It is best if we can do without that item with love and happiness. Do not think about it. We experienced the nature of the other person and in future deal with the person with that experience in mind. It may be possible to give the same person in future to develop such qualities like openness and generosity within us but we should be mindful of the situation where we are not encouraging bad habits   (increasing the grip of his own nature) within the other person. Sadhak needs to interact with everybody in such a way with awareness. We must understand that under usual circumstances, the soul will use the things given by us according to his own nature. At the same time it does not mean that we should not help anybody. If some soul has not used the things given by us in an appropriate manner earlier, we must remind him of this fact with clarity and humbleness whenever such incident happens again. We should not fear, if such telling will make him feel bad or feel small. Know for sure that if we fail to say such a thing; it only means that we have a kind of timidity or shyness.
