Nobody likes insults but I tell you that they are very helpful. Respect and insult are the sweet and bitter juices of the ego respectively. Those who insult you have come to squeeze the juice out of your ego. When someone tells you that you have no sense, he extracts the bitter juice and the ego is proportionately broken, with no effort on your part. The ego is full of juices. When you were unaware (before Gnan) and someone squeezed the juice (insults you), it caused tremendous agony. Now with this understanding (Gnan), let the ego be squeezed knowingly and naturally. What is better than someone else doing this for you naturally?  Other people can be extremely helpful in this matter.
