b'A meditator asks Sathi, "How can we be compassionate when we see drivers putting others in danger?"\\n\\nSathi approaches this situation from a wider angle looking at situations such as with family and neighbors, framing it from the perspective that none of us is perfect, so we cannot expect others to be perfect. He shows where the frustration and anger comes from; a point-of-view that says we are perfect and can judge others.\\n\\nBy comparison he compares situations where we are more forgiving and compassionate. When working with children, or when working with others who do not have the same abilities as ourselves.\\n\\nSathi also offers a useful suggestion, thanking the person we are focusing our anger/frustration at, for showing us what we don\'t want to be.\\n\\nBeing mindful of this helps us strengthen our minds by increasing our compassion.\\n\\nA conversation follows exploring:\\n- How this is different from being passive/aggressive.\\n- When waiting for the emotions to cool is an excellent strategy.\\n- The phrase "I am perfect" is really ego and part of our conditioning.\\n- How fear or danger is often the root cause of anger.'
