-----攻擊與謙和-----
攻擊好鬥的個性(aggressiveness)是集體性(collectivity)最大的敵人，有些人本質上是極具有侵略性，他們談話的方式就極端富有攻擊性。這或許是由於某些因素：可能是受較多的教育，或可能是他來自一個非常具有侵略性的家庭，或許是他有一種優越的情結(superiority complex)，或一種自卑的情結(inferiority complex)，或是一種缺乏安全感在作祟，或是他被一些亡靈附身。
他們往往試圖主導與掌握，對別人表現出一種強烈的優越感。這或許是源於他們的自卑感，當然也不一定如此，但是這種行為(在集體内)是必須被制止的。如何做呢？即其他人要來練習謙和(humility)。
有一個笑話說：兩個人在樓梯相遇，上樓的人說：請讓路。下樓的那一位答道：我不讓路給儍瓜(I don't move for fools !)。上樓者往旁邊一靠説：但我會的(But I do !，譯者：英文的" I do "是用很簡潔的話語來表示 "我會讓路給傻瓜 "，但是又沒有說出 "傻瓜" 的字眼)。
這個笑話正顯現出謙和是如何作用。你必須以謙和的態度來應對他人。........謙和是指你絕不可以壓迫別人，假如別人以侵略性、壓迫性的態度來對待你，你應該把它當成一種像小孩子、一種愚笨的行為，不值得你去介意。因為你是如此有容量、有能力，你可以承擔這些。

Now the worst enemy of collectivity is aggressiveness.
Some people are basically aggressive; their style of talking is extremely
aggressive, the way they say things is aggressive. May be because anything, may
be they are better educated, may be they come from a very aggressive family,
may be they are having a kind of a superiority complex or an inferiority
complex or a sense of insecurity, or maybe they are possessed.
They try to dominate and show their very strong
feelings towards people – of superiority. They may be inferior, it’s not
necessary, but they do and this is something is to be curbed. So what you have
to practice here is humility. Try to be humble.
There was a joke like this, that: one gentleman was
going on the staircase and another was coming from the top. So this gentleman
who was going up there said to the another that “Please move.” So he said, “I
don’t move for fools!” The person who was climbing up, he said, “But I do” and
he moved out.
That’s how the humility works. You have to be humble
in your approach to others. ..............Humility is that in no way you try to
aggress others, and if others are aggressive you accept
it as a childish thing, as a stupid thing, as a foolish thing, has no meaning:
because you are so powerful, you can bear it.
