I guess that this is where I am trying to get at with this thread... (minus that wisdom stuff
), and the Ra analogy that might be used here is that of an attacking bull, where Ra says that the response from a perfectly balanced entity is love when being attacked by another self, and that "the principle of balance is the observer not being blind by any feelings of separation but rather fully imbued with love". Like in your situation, you could feel for her situation, and the compassion was certainly present, and this is it! What then the correct or appropriate action is, is another story. Like you said, the correct action was to leave her, but what I am getting at here is that you were feeling love. That's the important point.
