Try to control the dangerous emotion yourself !



Anger is one of the most dangerous emotions, but one of the easiest to understand. 
However, before we understand its origins and causes, it is important to remind ourselves that it is always our own creation. It is an emotion which we create as part of our response to what we perceive (understand) is happening around us. As we shall see, no one can actually make us angry, although, like all our other emotional states, it seems as if they do. Anger is also a very painful emotion and we are suffering when we create it. And yet many people believe it is good to be angry sometimes. They even think it is healthy. But the truth is, the evidence has been increasing for some time that anger kills - it is directly connected to heart disease and cancer, and there are now many clinics, which treat patients’ physical illnesses by helping them understand and transform (change) their anger.

Fine Tune Thoughts Thru Concentration & A New Energy Will Open Up !


When we reflect (think deeply) properly, we start to be economical with our thought energy. When milk is churned, it is gradually reduced in volume until it becomes butter. When we have many ideas, or thoughts, about a particular thing and we reflect in the right way, those ideas start to become cleaner and clearer, that is, more essenceful (focused).

Bringing our thoughts to the essence is called concentration. Such concentration is natural and not forced. We cannot concentrate naturally unless we have been through the reflection process.

When the mind gets to that point of concentration where mental energy is conserved (saved), then we are empowered (strengthened). An inner spring of energy is opened, which flows through us and takes us up to another level of consciousness.

Use Situations in Positive Way and Experience Constant Progress

To make use of situations in a positive way is to experience constant progress. Each and every situation comes with a hidden blessing – a hidden opportunity. It of course brings challenges, challenges that could bring out the best potential from within. But the one who is caught up with only weaknesses never gets a chance to use these challenging situations as opportunities. On the other hand, the one who uses his potential is able to be from his weaknesses also. When we are able to use all situations as opportunities to recognise and use our inner potential, we are able to be free from the influence of our weaknesses. This freedom gives us the ability to enjoy this moment without filling the mind with unnecessary doubts and questions. It gives the ability to bring about progress in our lives, whatever the circumstance may be.
