What To Do When Someone Insults You
Just remain cool.
Don’t get agitated.
Don’t give it back.
This is the wisdom that Mahabharata gives you.
If you do so, then:
- All the punya the person who insults you has acquired thus far will come to you.
- Any papa that you have done will go to him.
Only a fool would insult another person.
A person who badmouths you behind your back is no better than an animal.
This is the advice that Bhishmacharya gave to Yudhishtira.
