WATCHING THE MIND IS LIKE WATCHING A MOVIE

See this content in the original post

When you’re angry with someone, you really want to be angry with that person. We would like to be right and that person should be wrong; and we should be angry. That’s what anger does.

It is the same with sadness – when we’re sad, we would like to be sad and there’s a reason to be sad and that’s also the nature of the mind.

There’s nothing wrong with that – simply recognize that the mind is doing that.

All we want to do is to see that it’s a sad movie playing – it could be a sad, angry or happy movie playing in the mind. And, we watch that movie to understand how the thoughts and feelings play out.
