In the example with my sister she was learning boundaries, both for herself and with others. My aunt was hosting us and made a clear boundary as far as not talking transgenderism at the dinner table. April crossed this boundary in favor of voicing her own ideas. She wasn't even aware of her self(unaware she was poking a bear) and couldn't understand why she was not allowed to express her views or why Aunt Robyn would react so negatively. Happy to report April is learning more about boundaries and growing a lot.

Often times we're faced with challenging lessons because we are more absorbed with our own ideas than correctly reading a room.

In the case of Yogananda, I think he recognized that all paths lead to one and that arguing whose path is better is not constructive but a mark of spiritual immaturity.
