How can we go about setting healthy boundaries in challenging situations when there are no boundaries in infinite awareness?
Rupert says: ‘Use the situation to deepen your establishment in your true nature, but don’t let that prevent you from doing what you need to do in life at a more relative level, which includes being able to say no and putting up boundaries.
Don’t think that because awareness accepts everything you should accept all behaviour. You have to be able to say no – but your no should come from clarity, not from emotional reactivity. There are no boundaries in infinite awareness, but boundaries are necessary in everyday life. Don’t confuse the two.’
