Buddhists - intrusive father


Expert: John Willemsens aka Advayavadananda - 10/17/2009

Question
Hi there, I am wondering if there is a specific mudra or breathing exercise or meditation you can tell me of that will help me deal with a domineering intrusive father who keeps trying to control me. I would like to deal with this situation in a peaceful manner as often talking about it with him either keeps things the same or makes them worse so I am focusing now on working on myself from within so that my external reality changes.  any help on this? thanks :)

Answer
Hello NG,

It seems to me that what you need to find is the right way to talk to your father. They say that the Buddha has this ability to teach in such a manner that the other, whoever it was, would understand what he was saying. The first part of the last chapter of The Light of Asia, by Edwin Arnold, might inspire you in this sense.

Kind regards,
Advayavadananda.
