You cut two-thirds of it. Don't just nip it or strip it down. They will feel (it’s) too violent. They will feel sad or scared. Tell them before, ‘Can I have some of your beautiful things?’ ‘Thank you.’ And then take some. And do it with loving kindness and thankfulness. […] Remember to ask for permission. Remember to thank sincerely at the end. Okay? To ask for permission is also to warn them that you’re going to take something. ‘Could you please withdraw your spirit from that part?’ Then they’ll be okay. They won’t feel that sad because they know you’re worthy, and they’re happy to contribute.”
