When
we are depressed and angry with the world, we tend to go from bad to worse in
our mental condition. Anger only dissipates your energy up to a level where you
lose your ability to think straight, let alone heal yourself. And in this mode,
you tend to become your own worst enemy.
This
situation requires the ability to analyze the core issue of the anger because,
as I have experienced it, anger is always self directed...for what could have
happened but didn't, for the wrong choices made, for lost opportunities, for a
lack of love, for loneliness, for feeling rejection, depression...and more.
It
is not easy to turn inwards. The mind only wants to blame and blame everyone
and everything but the self.
And
then, we seek recourse to prayer. Even after, we often wait for a change to
HAPPEN rather than MAKE it happen. We need help.
A
wonderful way to overcome this mode : just ask yourself..
Why
am I angry?
Who
am I angry with?
Why
am I angry with that person or situation?
Did
I contribute to it in any way?
Answer
all these questions truthfully to yourself and you will find that most of the
time, you failed to look within to find the actual issue. That you had the
power to understand and let go but you held on.
Making
a constant habit of this kind of clinical analysis can help you in cultivating
a calm persona.
