Engaging Others' Views
Listen
without arguing, and try to hear what the other is really saying,
remembering that, as Buddha pointed out, all beings wish to be happy and
avoid suffering. A Buddhist practices nonattachment to views. If we
human beings are going to stick around on this earth, we need to learn
to get along not just with the people who share our views, but also, and
more to the point, with the people who get our goat. And remember—we
get their goat, too.
