Two critical questions for engagement

Now is the place where the crossroads meet

The masters in my mind have distilled it down as such:

when we want to engage someone who disagrees
first we explore two critical questions:

Who is the teacher, and who is the learner?
Who is the host, and who is the guest?

when we can answer both those questions definitively
we know we are not ready to engage.

the more ways we can imagine to answer these questions, the more prepared we will be to share
our open hearts.
