Yogi: The mind was angry and another mind said that it was happy to notice anger. But it was not really happy.

Sayadaw: It is better to watch your anger – then, you can learn.

When the mind doesn’t like an object, the mind is very good at covering it because of the unpleasant, suffering feeling. When you do that, it becomes harder to practice.

We do it all the time in our lives and it has become a habit. For example, when the mind is angry, we sometimes put on a smile.

It is better that yogis don’t try to change the experience when there is anger, resistance or suffering. Rather, let nature happen and then try to be aware.
