Conflict

This has reference to an article in the Indian Express Newspaper of Kochi on 25th Jan 2018.

Conflict

The title is “Prejudice is the biggest challenge that we face today”. I became thoughtful. Can we improve the of our lives if we get the expertise to resolve conflicts? The article is interview of Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. But I needed to take a closer look. So, I did a deep dive into the possibilities of conflict resolutions.

The pointers are, too many positions, stubbornness and adamancy. Prejudice is one among them. But how to discover solutions? It is most difficult to get the listening of another person. Adversary is very deeply locked into their stance. There is almost no elbowroom to negotiate. Somebody has to relent and give in or even give up. The adversary must be persuaded and convinced that your intentions are squeaky clean, that you come with no grudge or sense of revenge that you have included benefits for the interest of adverse opinions also. Oppositions must be convinced that you have no personal axe to grind. No sinister plan or selfish motives. Then you get the ears from the opposition. Stress, misunderstanding, insecurities and lack of communication are factors that contributes to conflicts. These conditions can choke the mental skills. The clutter in mind fuels more conflicts. So breathing techniques, meditation and yoga can bring clarity to mind. The good mental skill needed is the ability to establish goodwill and cordiality among people. People has insecurities. Some are petrified about their future. They need assurance. How equipped are you to offer any solace and calm to the burning minds?
