When you believe in something and are passionate about it then it is not hard to understand the initial reactions one of this nature goes to when confronting direct affronts to those beliefs. We must always take a deep breath, three of them minimum, to clear our minds and emotions and look upon that confrontation with neutral mind or mind of no mind.
To allow our deep passions and total dedication direct our emotions and egos toward anger and frustrations leads to disaster [as written in the I Ching which we come to from the key to the fighting/martial arts called the kenpo gokui].
Take a moment, breathe deeply to clear the spirit, mind, and body, consider the strategy and tactics necessary to correct the situation where both come to an understanding that benefits them and those they socialize with in and out of the dojo.
Don't listen to the ego but listen to the heart and let mindfulness and logic drive you to mutual agreement and if you are very lucky there will be transformation/shift toward the truth regardless of its source.
