Yogi: I was lost in thought and there was a lot of anger; it started when I became angry with someone at home. I realized that this mood attracted everything that would make me angry.

I also realized how much all the anger is related to selfing, all the time.

Sayadaw: That’s right. It’s very interesting, once the aversion is there, it finds its object and finds things to be averse about.

When you see the truth of what aversion does, it is not personal. The truth is always interesting.

When you see reality like that, when you see the nature of things, no matter how many times you see it, it is always fresh and interesting because it is so real and fascinating.
