A case of "Leaky Energy" in interpersonal relationship

[Spotless]

You are clearly very irritated by 'C' and she seems to exhibit a set of behaviours which trigger this in you. There are several possible reasons for this not all of which relate to her at all. But that is not really the main issue. Having someone close by you who irritates you is extremely good fortune from a cultivation point of view. You should be dancing with joy that the universe has set this up for you. There was a great 10th Century Buddhist teacher called Atisha who when travelling deliberately chose the most useless and annoying monk he could find to accompany him. You should take this opportunity to learn about yourself and about energy interactions. There are many methods and techniques for helping with this depending on what type of practice you do. Study this. Put it into practice. Good luck.

Wonderful post - reminded me of a student (in an esoteric school) who everyone in the class resisted. One day she left in the middle of class (possibly just to go to the bathroom) and the Teacher spoke to the resistance in the room "I could not pay someone enough to do what she does to you for free".

 

Asking this of you may be a bit like telling someone in the heat of it that they should calm down - when asking them to calm down only increases their rage. Its like being bottled up in the midst of a flight or fight response.
