Avoid Clashes: One of the Easiest Conflict Resolution Techniques

“Avoid Clashes”

This is one of the easiest conflict resolution techniques. When absorbed in your daily routine, it fills your life with immense peace and harmony.

Let us study how to deal with conflict in two different scenarios and learn how to apply conflict resolution techniques in both, in order to avoid clashes.

Scenario 1 - When you clash with someone:

Say you bang your head against a wall, you get hurt, but the wall remains unaffected. In the same way, when you clash with someone it means that you are creating the conflict and therefore hurting yourself.

Scenario 2 - When someone comes to clash with you:

When a charging bull comes your way, even if you are a king you would have to move aside to avoid getting hurt. When such situations arise in your life you should avoid clashing with the other person and move aside to avoid getting hurt.

By applying the conflict resolution techniques within these pages in your day-to-day life, you can create a conflict free environment around you. Param Pujya Dadashri has exposed this science behind ‘Avoid Clashes’ and you can read more about it here.
