Protecting Ourselves from the Suffering of Others

A man asks about why, when we are totally open, it seems like suffering comes from some kind of resistance? He says he tries not to be too open in order to protect himself from other peoples' suffering. Rupert responds that you don't need to protect yourself from suffering. Like the space in the room, your true self is open and welcoming whatever arises. There's nothing to protect.
