For me, this highlights, assumptions that i could, that are quite ingrained, about people. I guess my responses are still conditioned to an extent by the things i've come to think when 'filling in the picture' about someone.
We're constantly confronted by asymmetry, between situations-- in some situations we feel more inclined to behave in certain ways, more so than in others--; and between us and others. How do you deal with this asymmetry- so that one can be of service uconditionally?
How does one tell the difference between responses based on preconceived notions on 'how to do so and why' and a response of service, in accordance with what one sees the situation to require?
