DON’T MERELY TRY TO MAKE THE MIND ACCEPT AND LET GO

See this content in the original post

Yogi: I have a lot of anger and was told to accept it and let go. But I cannot; how do I change my view about anger to accept and let go?

Sayadaw: First, you need to think that anger is not yours; anger is anger, and anger is nobody’s anger. This is the first attitude when watching anger.

We’re not trying to accept; we’re trying to think the right way about anger – anger is nature. That’s enough.

Secondly, we try to be aware of this feeling, not the storyline, just the feeling, understand?
