Dealing With Difficult People

This talk is about how to deal with difficult people as they are a common part of life. Difficult people can actually be blessings as they teach us patience, compassion and wisdom. Firstly, know that difficult people are everywhere and there's nothing wrong with having them around. Second, realize that most of the difficulty comes from how we react to them. When encountering difficult people, empathize with them as they might be suffering as much as we are. — This dhamma talk was originally recorded in 28th November 2008.
