Shwe Oo Min Dhammasukha Tawya 20 Dec 2019 Chinese Group Q&A (34:25-36:50)
Yogi: I have lots of fear and anger with my job and when I meditate, I can know why the problems arise.
Sayadaw: The reasons you know causing your problems are all (through thinking) about the concepts. It is not from understanding the mind process.
You need to learn about the activities of the mind – if you know more about the nature of the mind, the defilements cannot overrun the mind when they arise.
Everyone has fear and anger, not only you.
Yogi: More self-pity arises because it seems like everybody at work knows about my problem.
Sayadaw: It’s this idea of self that makes the mind suffer even more.
