Even when others behave in a troublesome way, the best way to react is with mildness and circumspection, and no matter what the provocation, one should endeavour to be just and impartial. How people respond to the various situations confronting them in life will determine their eternal abode. Those who yield to the mighty and oppress the weak will surely be punished in Hell, and they would do well to remember that there are two paths which open out before them every day, one of which leads to Hell and the other to Paradise.
