Anger is not a choice.
by Atman Nityananda
Anger is not a choice.
In other words, we don’t choose to get angry, it happens.It is a compulsive and inevitable reaction.
Anger is a modification of desire and comes from the Guna (quality) Rajas which is one of the three fundamental powers that constitute life and all human forms and beings.
Whatever prevents the realization of desire, desire is modified into anger (annoyance, irritability, resentment, resentment, rage, fury, etc.).
What kind of desire?
Desire to acquire, achieve, enjoy something or avoid something, and desire for things to happen as we desire and anticipate.
And also desires related to physical and psychological security and to our pride and self-esteem.
The ‘secret’ to a plentiful life, a life of harmony, happiness and contentment is to have a sattvic mind free from desires and ego and to live in every moment in conscious contact with our true Self (Consciousness).
🌺 Peace, Love, Harmony
