Sometimes you may feel overwhelmed by the difficulty of understanding how the world works. If you really reflect upon it, you realize that it is so difficult because you tend to judge what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is bad. It's undeniable that certain things are 'bad' and 'wrong' from an ethical or moral point of view. But this standpoint isn't useful if you are trying to 'understand', when you are engaged in a more practical search for 'reality'. Therefore, if you endeavor not to be 'partisan' (=biased) but you put yourself in a neutral position in front of a certain issue, it's easier to see how and why something happened. When you perceive the situation from a different perspective, you realize that the cause of someone else's thinking comes from their conditionings and the cause of their actions derives from their beliefs. When you can do this, you "understand".
