One of the most fundamental teachings in Buddhism is
concerned with the possibility of causality,
that is to say, karma; cause and effect.
Everything effects everything, indirectly, if not directly.
So if you find another’s soul-sucking behavior to be disempowering then
yes, by all means retreat to a safe distance and
then use the compassion exercises to take away their bitterness and
the love exercises to increase their love.
But do remember that it is crucial that
we always empower our prayers with the mantra.
I’m reminded of Monty Python and the Holy Grail,
instead of saying retreat, Arthur would scream,
“run away!”
The psudo-intellectual elite are often quite angered by
the ease of the process I teach.
After all, how can one feed ego’s pride if
all they rely upon are EASY practices… regardless of how effective they are?
May you and yours be
happy and healthy!
