b'The Metta Meditation Practice contains the phrase: \\n May all living being be well, happy, skillful, and peaceful. \\n\\nSathi explains what the term "skillful" means in this context.\\nIf you see a fire outside, then you need to find a solution for outside. Not inside where there is no fire. What is happening is we bring the fire that is outside into ourselves. Then we struggle. A skillful person will not do this.\\n\\nBeing skillful means that even if the situation is angry, do not become angry. Remain who you are. Even if the situation causes sadness. Remain as who you are without losing yourself into sadness. Even if the situation is causing frustration. Remain who you are without losing yourself into frustration. That is the way of living for a skillful person.'
