Part 1:
“No one commits a mistake deliberately. Mistakes simply happen because of a lack of awareness. Once awareness dawns within you, then you should simply realise that you made a mistake out of ignorance.” …Sri Sri
Mistakes keep happening all the time. Often you want to correct them. How much can you correct ? There are two situations when you correct other's mistakes.
1. You correct someone's mistake because it bothers you. But even if you correct it, this does not work.
2. You correct someone's mistake not because it bothers you. But for their sake so that they can grow.
👉To correct mistakes you need authority and love. Authority and love seem to be contradictory, but in reality they are not. Authority without love is stifling. Love without authority is shallow. A friend needs to have both authority and love, but they need to be in the right combination. This can happen if you are totally dispassionate and centered. When you allow room for mistakes, you can be both authoritative and sweet. That is how the Divine is, the right balance of both. Krishna and Jesus had both.
(Now, how do you deal with a person who has committed a mistake? )
❌Don't make a mistake by pointing out mistakes !
Once a lady came to me and said her husband had lied to her. She was very upset. I asked. " Why does your husband lie to you ? Because he loves you, and is afraid to lose your love or hurt you. If he did not love you, he wouldn't lie to you !"
❌Do not tell a person a mistake he knows he has committed. By doing this, you will only make him feel more guilty. A magnanimous person will not pick on the mistakes of others and make them feel guilty; he will correct them with compassion and care "
