18 Jul Anger is just a vomit
In controlling you repress, in transformation you express. But there is no need to express it on somebody else because the “somebody else” is just irrelevant.
Next time you feel angry, go and run around the house seven times, and after it sit under a tree and watch where the anger has gone. You have not repressed it, you have not controlled it, you have not thrown it on somebody else – because if you throw it on somebody else a chain is created because the other is as foolish as you, as unconscious as you. If you throw it on another, and if the other is an enlightened person, there will be no trouble; he will help you to throw and release it and go through a catharsis. But if the other is as ignorant as you – if you throw anger on him he will react. He will throw more anger on you. He is repressed as much as you are.
Then there comes a chain: you throw on him, he throws on you, and you both become enemies.
Don’t throw it on anybody. It is just like when you feel like vomiting: you don’t go and vomit on somebody. Anger needs a vomit; you go to the bathroom and vomit – it cleanses the whole body. If you suppress the vomit it will be dangerous, and when you have vomited you will feel fresh, you will feel unburdened, unloaded, good, healthy. Something was wrong in the food that you have taken and the body rejects it. Don’t go on forcing it inside. Anger is just a mental vomit. Something is wrong that you have taken in. Your whole psychic being wants to throw it out, but there is no need to throw it out on somebody. Because people throw it on somebody, society tells them to control it.
