How to deal with rude behaviour?

What do you do when someone behaves very rudely towards you?
Get upset, React rudely back, Get frustrated, Run away and avoid the person or situation, Blame the person, Preach to the person.
None of these will in any way strengthen you.
Then what are the options?
See rude behaviour in this light:
It indicates the intensity of their commitment.

It indicates their stress and insensitivity.
It projects the upbringing of the person.
It shows a behavioural pattern.
It shows lack of knowledge.
It shows lack of observation of the mind and its sensations.
It shows you behaviour to avoid
It is an opportunity for you to welcome and absorb the rudeness.
It strengthens your mind.
It reveals the love that you are as unconditional.
The next time when someone is rude to you, just give back a broad smile. If you can digest their rudeness, nothing whatsoever can shake you.
