Continued analysis

In a continued analysis of the Big Lebowski..... I have been giving the movie some thought because to me, cult movies typically have several levels of intellectualism.  Despite the seemingly base humor of the Big Lebowski, it makes some poignant valid points.  The one in particular I was thinking about today is the fact that this entire epic tale, that ultimately ends in the death of Donny (he was out of his element anyways), this entire thing was because the chinaman urinated on the Dude's rug.  It could have all been avoided had the Dude just let is slide.  Had the dude just been able to abide with the chinaman urinating on his rug it would have all been ok (You see, the rug really tied the room together). So the funny business aside, the point is this: you need to learn to just let some things slide.  Sometimes getting all upset over some piss on a rug can cost us dearly.  Sometimes we are wronged in life, but we need to turn the other cheek as Jesus said or learn to abide as the Dude says and just take what we are given and make the best of it demanding nothing from no one other than ourselves.
