If you can just pull back your assumptions and opinions about what seems harmful and upsetting, you are as safe as you can be. You yourself? Who is that? Your reason. 'But I am not just reason.' Fine. Still, don't let your reason accept grief. If there's something in you that feels grieved, let that part — whatever it is — deal with its own grief, if it can.
If thou canst but withdraw conceit and opinion concerning that which may seem hurtful and offensive, thou thyself art as safe, as safe may be. Thou thyself? and who is that? Thy reason. 'Yea, but I am not reason.' Well, be it so. However, let not thy reason or understanding admit of grief, and if there be anything in thee that is grieved, let that, (whatsoever it be,) conceive its own grief, if it can.
