lovingkindness

In so many ways this was a story of transformation. Seeking the common ground of celebration, invitation the intruder to join in, surprise, recognition of a real need, the intruder asking asking for it, forming a community of support to provide for that need, making a human connection, caring begetting caring in the intruder. It seems like a new complimentary behavior replaced the one of fearful response and shaming; celebrating and enjoying a moment together became the new complimentarity, rather than the reflexive response to a threat and attempted robbery.

We all want to be invited in, to feel like we belong. We wish to be seen and heard and accepted. <3 "Can I get a HUG?" Yes, yes yes. We just want to be loved. (I never leave home without my Free Hugs sign because you never know when someone might be in need of a hug) Here's to being kind even when it seems like a crazy thing to do. Here's to us all trying non-complementary behavior.

If you need a ride my friend and I will be happy to take you.

I am going to use this concept in a workshop training for Police Officers. Thanks,

The woman's intuitive response reminds me of Larry Dossey MD's thoughts on the "Consciousness of One." All human beings are connected; this woman tapped into it. The power of love.....Thank-you

The individuals in the story did not try to attribute this to a scientific theory-was it something that's explainable or work of divine intervention?

Emotional first aide-and being someone's Ally in tough times- can save lives-And demonstration the passion of love

That love is all powerful and all encompassing. This man clearly needed love. That they were willing to give their love to this scary person. He needed to belong and be accepted.

Realising that our quick responses can be the same side of the coin we avoid. This simple gesture is full of love and wisdom.

Thank you . Great Learning .

the ability of the woman to see beyond the hostility and danger of the situation, to the possibility of a connect with the decent core of the burglar and the willingness to accept him and treat him with dignity is amazing. the explanation about non-complementarityin the later part helps to understand why it worked, but the amazing part is the lady did it intuitively-that strength of character is inspiring. Just wonderful- made my day and made me revisit my anger and hostility at some situations in a different light.

Yes This video is great example and inspiration for us to just spread and give love and compassion irrespective of what comes our way. If only half of the people develop this, other half will automatically change and we all will have a luxury of living in harmonious and non violent world. Simply superb.
