Bageshwar Dham Sarkar
What should I do when someone close to me insists on something against dharma and I must stand for what is right?
Stand for truth, gently and patiently
A voice for truth should be raised against untruth. Plead humbly twice, wait a little the third time, and if they still will not understand, settle your own mind.
And you should plead three times, 'Please agree, humbly agree'—twice, and the third time wait a little. When you feel they will not understand, you should settle your own mind.
