TRUE SEEING (anyone who listens to this video and can't tell that this is the exact same example that Jesus embodied is just dum)v
True seeing is the foresight of the wise, the perspicacity of the able, finding out what calamity or fortune may come, and understanding whether action or stillness is auspicious or inauspicious. When you can see the potential before an event is triggered, and thereby act accordingly, guarding your footsteps with profound care, unobtrusively working to preserve your life, your conduct from start to finish, leaving no troubles and not contrary to reason, this is called true seeing. Eating and sleeping can both be harmful or beneficial; every act and every word can be a source of calamity or fortune. Even if you can manage the branches skillfully, that is not as good as disciplining the root crudely. Seeing the root, manage the branches, but without a sense of competitiveness. So collect your mind, simplify your affairs, and reduce contrivance day by day. When you embody quietude and your mind is free, only then can you see the subtle. The classic says, "Always be free from desire to see the subtle." Nevertheless, the body, with which you cultivate the Way, needs to be clothed and fed. There are some things you cannot dispense with; accept this with an empty heart, take responsibility for it with clear eyes. Do not say this will impede your mind and create vexation and excitement; those who get vexed and excited over things already have active afflictions of mind. How can that be called pacifying the mind? Human relations, clothing, and food are our boats; if you want to cross the sea, you use a boat. Once you have crossed the sea, you logically do not stay in the boat. But why would you want to abandon the boat before you have crossed over? The vanities of food and clothing are really not worth working for, but we seek food and clothing in order to get beyond vanity. Even though you work for your needs, do not give rise to thoughts of gain and loss; then, whether or not there is something to do, your mind will always be at peace. You seek like others but not greedily as others do; you gain like others but do not accumulate as others do. When you are not greedy, you are not anxious; when you do not accumulate stores, you do not lose anything. Your outward appearance is like that of others, but your mind is always different from worldlings. This is the essence of true practice; you should make an effort to apply it. If problems remain intractable even after you have severed entanglements and simplified your affairs, just view them objectively. If you are heavily afflicted by sexuality, then you should view addiction to sex as coming from thoughts; if those thoughts do not occur, then there is no sex. So you should recognize that thoughts of sex are externally empty, while the idea of sex is an inward imagination. The imagining mind is empty, so who is the subject of sexuality? Scripture says, '"Sexual objects are just mental imagery; since mental images are all empty, how can there be sexual objects?" Also, think of how beautiful women are more dangerous than vixen sprites. Vixen sprites charm men, causing them aversion, so that they will not enter evil ways, even at the threat of death. Because of this aversion, they avoid promiscuity forever. Beautiful women bewitch men so that they become obsessed and grow more and more deeply attached even as it leads to their own death. Because of wrong thoughts, on dying they fall into various states and are born in hell. Scripture says, "In this life you willed to become husband and wife, but after death you cannot live together." Why is the course of human life like this? Because of false thoughts. Also consider this: if physical beauty is invariably attractive, why do fish dive and birds fly when they see a human, even a beautiful woman? Wizards look upon physical beauty as muck and mire; the wise liken it to a sword or a hatchet. If you do not eat for seven days you may die, but if you do not have sexual intercourse for a hundred years you will avoid premature death. Therefore we know that sex is not essential for body or mind but is an enemy to essence and life. Why be obsessed with it, bringing destruction on yourself? When people see others doing wrong and conceive aversion and disdain, that is like grabbing the knife from someone about to kill himself and committing suicide with it yourself. It is the other who is doing wrong, not compelling you; why take on others' wrongs and make them into your own sickness? Furthermore, if you see those who do wrong as detestable, then those who do good should also be disdained. Why? Because both obstruct the Way.

Getting to the root of the problem affecting targeted individuals. I was raised in a very strict religious household which did immense psychological harm that took years to recover from. I was homeless for 2 years. I went on to recover and found work in behavioral health supporting other homeless individuals in my community. Now disabled and struggling to survive but just doing my part to contribute to a collective healing.
