WISE STRATEGY

Disputes can only be resolved through wise strategies, not simply by demanding they end. This principle is unquestionably correct. There is no other solution to conflict.

When two human groups coexist, it is natural that they will often encounter differences and disputes. For example, the slogans of one group might upset the other. One group may not show the same sensitivity toward another community’s place of worship as the community that considers it sacred.

There are different situations where one group might develop grievances against another. The answer to these grievances isn’t to complain immediately but to overlook them. The best solution is to practice tolerance and patience in disagreements instead of resorting to conflict and revenge.

We cannot fight against nature, and reacting to differences is like fighting against it. Such differences happen naturally. In these cases, going along with nature is the best solution; fighting it will never fix the issue.

Every problem has a solution, but it only comes through wise strategy. If, when a problem arises, we don’t give in to frustration but instead calmly consider the whole situation, seeing the problem as just a problem and not as a matter of reputation or dignity, we will surely find an easy way to solve it.

Whenever a problem occurs, shield yourself from falling into negative emotions. Concentrate your mind solely on developing a strategy. Then, you’ll see that the problem is resolved as if it never existed.
