The student asked his master:
— I have attacks of anger, I want to free myself from it, but I can’t. What should I do?
The master didn’t say a word, he just looked deep into the eyes of his student, so that he even sweated from surprise. He wanted to break the silence, but he did not dare. Finally, the master smiled and said:
- Strange! I searched and searched, but I couldn't find the anger inside you. Show me some anger here and now.
The student said:
- He's not always here. It appears suddenly. How can I show it now?
The master smiled again and said:
“Then it is not your true nature that remains with you always; and if your anger was a part of you, you could show it to me. When you were born, he was not with you. When you die, he won't be with you. This anger is not you. There's a mistake here somewhere. Go away and think. Search! Meditate!
