There are wild, intractable people exerting their influence who are intolerant of any opposition. It is wise to act with what is proper and maintain good manners with grace and decorum.
Read the text from Richard Wilhelm's translation of the I Ching
“The situation is really difficult. That which is strongest and that which is weakest are close together. The weak follows behind the strong and worries it. The strong, however, acquiesces and does not hurt the weak, because the contact is in good humor and harmless.
In terms of a human situation, one is handling wild, intractable people. In such a case one’s purpose will be achieved if one behaves with decorum. Pleasant manners succeed even with irritable people. “

“If the Infinite wants something, a devotee can change it. But if a devotee says something, then God cannot undo it. The devotee is merged in that vastness, relies on it, and has no barrier of ego between the two. So the One must stand for the one.” Yogi Bhajan
