Responding to someone who thinks they have all the answers

What this episode covers

A meditator recounts an uncomfortable conversation where another person declares that everyone else, except her, does meditation incorrectly. How should a mindful person respond to a situation like this? Sathi replies by introducing the Sanskrit word, muni. Remaining silent. He also explores why arguments are not worth their effort or result. This follows into a valuable discussion about where ego fits in and Sathi talks a little about our common sense of belonging to a group such as our family, our school, our state, our favorite team. The meditators talk about debate vs discussion. Sathi closes talking about being mindful of the person we are talking with as well as the right time and the right place.
