determination not to repeat the action.
The witness, who has an opportunity to step in, at risk to self, and thus can experience the empowerment of
group action toward good, or the diminishment of empowerment from being intimidated.
All these are opportunities for growth, in one direction or the other, and this is the major lesson of 3rd Density.

ZetaTalk: Aggression
Mail this Pageto a Friend.
A common misperception among humans is the assumption that higher spiritual densities are removed from any
emotion except love, and have no destructive urges. The matter of being Service-to-Other does
and crosses the line into destructive behavior is
the self. Self defense is not only assumed, it is desirable! Any entity that became utterly passive and failed to defend itself would not last long. Self defense is integral in any life form, and can hardly be removed, nor should it be.
There is much confusion regarding defensive or aggressive actions being taken by those operating in the Service-to-
Other orientation. Empathy toward others and non-violent means of attending to life’s daily affairs are assumed, and
under equitable conditions this
restraining another, or even killing them if this is the most effective solution, is not only a Service-to-Self perogative.
These are solutions open to those in the Service-to-Other also.
In dealing with, for instance, a sadist preying upon the young, an inability to safeguard the young by any other means
than killing the sadist would not be out of keeping with the Service-to-Other philosophy. Which other is being served
by allowing him to continue? The young children, as a group of others, or the sadist as a single individual utterly
lacking in consideration of others? The choice is clear, and killing the sadist a solution involving empathy and
kindness overall. In fact, allowing the sadist to continue is

ZetaTalk: Turn the Other Cheek
Mail this Pageto a Friend.
What should be done when a human finds they are being victimized, for whatever reason? Most certainly they should
not simply cry 'Pity me' and do nothing! Much has been made of the Christian adage, turn the other cheek. In India, it is much touted that the British were routed because Ghandi engaged them with passive resistance. Does this ploy not
work? Sometimes. In the main, this ploy does
instance, where he personally has misgivings. Where former victims are inciting violence, here the protagonist drawn
into a conflict may find they can turn the situation around, to where injuries are addressed rather than conflict
escalated, by returning love for antagonism.

ZetaTalk: Good Samaritan
Mail this Pageto a Friend.
Where the victim has carried resentment forward into a fresh situation, with uninvolved spectators who have no
knowledge of and certainly no guilt toward the victim's plight, a Good Samaritan dilemma may develop where the
victim attacks his rescuers blindly. How does this play out? Who is to blame here? Where should the finger of blame,
which in much of human society must point somewhere, point? The solution is to realize that there are two victims in
this situation. This is a theme often enough played in your media - the good Samaritan caught in a cycle of violence,
the healer who must struggle with demons brought forth by his good intentions.

Trust among the trustworthy is a marvelous life, as one goes about one's work not concerned whether what others
promised will be forthcoming, as they are trustworthy. This is a highly productive environment, with each
