And it takes immense courage, and assistance from Amma, for me to sometimes step out of my comfort zone and say or do something that I know may cause someone to think badly of me. Mostly, I try to avoid it, but in the parlance of AA and Alanon, this is known as "people pleasing," and not viewed as productive to one's emotional health. It is very much like walking along "the razor's edge" to know when is the right time to step into the void and let happen what may.

Amma referred to Jesus in Her XMAS 2005 talk something to the effect that Jesus fearlessly pursued his path knowing that he would eventually suffer retribution. He sought the welfare of others at the expense of his safety. How is that for razor edge walking. In fact if you read the talk Amma uses the phrase "razors edge" Namah Shivaya, G > > > Dear GeorgeSon ~ me too.
