LOL
1) It presupposes that suffering is the norm.
It isn't.
2) Not everyting will elicit an emotional reaction , but an emotional reaction
to something emotive is par for the course for all but psychopaths and
robots., i.e. AIs.
3) Lee follows spiritual, superstitious balderdash with an appeal for the
deployment of logic.
THAT IS ILLOGICAL.
4) He postulates that "If words control you that means everyone else can
control you"
So only deaf and dumb people, or those with a speech impediment cannot
control you, nor, indeed, if they address you in a foreign tongue or in Welsh,
LOL.
5) He ends with the excremental [I][I][I]"Breathe and allow things to pass".
I doubt that anyone needs to be told that breatiing is good for you.
