A classic Buddhist Ch'an teaches us valuable lessons on strategic confrontation. The key lies in understanding the situation and selecting the right tools for combat.
Ignoring and engaging peacefully may work, but facing a formidable opponent requires a shift in approach. Remember, fighting with the wrong tools leads to certain defeat. When challenged by a rogue swordsman, adapt your strategy accordingly. Approach the battle like a brave-heart, equipped for victory.
Narrate a poem if it helps. Avoid confrontation, if it works. But that is a risk. If beyond a point, the poetry is not heard, pick up your arms and strategically confront.
Collaboration is very good. But wherever it is necessary, strategic confrontation is not bad .
Well said. There is place for poem. And another for Sword.
