For somebody, who’ll probably never read it

Vatsa said something in the MGC class today. And it seemed to me that he was giving words to my thoughts, reading my mind, understanding what nobody else was able to. It was one of those rare moments when all your faith in magic is suddenly reconstituted.

It was during the MGC class. We were studying a concept in which it was explained how important it is to build a shattered person’s confidence, because in absence of that the person ends up hurting himself eternally. And towards its end, Vatsa said that he just wanted to share a reflection.

“What about the people who are just the opposite of this? People who are very confident of themselves? They also need some counselling. But they never get it because they never approach anybody for it. And that is because they don’t know they need it. They are so sure of themselves. They think they are perfect in every sense. They believe that their reasoning, thoughts and opinions are flawless. Perhaps these people are not given counselling because they don’t hurt themselves. But they hurt others around them, others who may care for them and what they say. Because these people will demean everybody, even those who love them.”
