Spiritual reading — let your anger come from love, not ego; from seeing rights denied, not wants thwarted

Spread the love

Jesus and Hitler acted from love of the suffering, innocent little people, not from hatred. Does one hate a jew? Does one hate a dog turd?  😉 No, you just grin a bit, clean it off your boot, and throw it into the bushes for the bacteria to eat.

We do everything from love; when we get angry, THAT is from love. It is never about us, but about our children, and their future.

Every fine boy a future knight!

November 10

Let’s turn to anger today. There is a lot of it around, and you are all visited by it from time to time.

Sometimes it is a salutary thing. Like fire, it can cleanse and leave behind a landscape that is both open and free of obstacles.  (We’ll return to this form of anger later.)

Heartfelt thanks from Joe Biden, except this reptile has no heart

Most often, though, it destroys that which has been built up with loving care and attention, and like a fire, it can raze those treasures in an unguarded instant or two.

As you know, anger arises almost inevitably from sorrow. From the inability to get or effect or do that which you want. The reasons may be high-minded, or arise completely from self-interest or greed. It really matters not, for the match that most ofen ignites the tinder is constructed of disempowerment.

Disempowered, not getting that which you want to get (whether it be human rights for all, or the job you were qualifed for, or the admiration you wanted from someone you care about), there is an internal conflagration that tends to break out.

Your mind, sometimes in conjunction with your heart and your body, has identifed something it thinks would be advantageous and then takes whatever steps seem appropriate to get it. Sometimes, it must be added, this means none whatsoever.

But when the desired outcome does not occur, this is a slight to the ego, a blow struck against the mastery of the individual, a
lid placed on his or her ability to expand, to be and to have all that this particular self identifes as right to be, have or do.

Then, of course, the anger, the incendiary energy, flares and either gets directed outward, sometimes leveling its object, or it can be suppressed and smolder in the heart of its creator for a long, long time.

Whichever direction it goes, there is often a high price to be paid.

Anger is rarely an issue outside of the human realm. On earth, animals in the wild fght for what they need to survive, but never, to our knowledge, feel the impulse to ‘get even.’ They get what they need if they can, and if they can’t they move on and look elsewhere. A mother defends her babes, but if one is snatched despite her best efforts, she turns her attention to the ones remaining.

Imagine a mother opossum who, having shepherded her latest litter into independence, setting  off to harass the coyote who had dined on one of her children. It is an odd picture, is it not?

Equally unlikely is a vision of that opossum mother castigating herself endlessly for being a bad mother, for having caused her baby’s death through her own negligence, sinking into lethargy and depression.

Animals are…well, “philosophical” about life. They take responsibility for their part and leave the rest to something much larger.

They lack an egoic mind and they lack the notion of desire as you know it. They are not ‘wronged’ as you so often are, and they do not feel the need to vindicate themselves. Anger is just not part of their experience. It is uniquely human and in many ways it describes the boundaries of human folly.

Maybe you can see where we are going here? We’ll explicate, none-the-less. Obviously, the less attached you are to your wants and not your needs, the less anger you are going to experience.

Because everyone has occasion to be disappointed in their desires. And as a rule, anger is both painful and destructive, not to mention
distracting, so if it can be encountered less often that is a boon.

How to do that? Well, the more you are able to ally with greater forces than your own limited self as you plot your course through life, the more you will easily accept what actually is on offer. If you simply must have a particular job, you might get it, but if you don’t, the cascade of negative emotions could drown you.

Or light that fire. If instead, you wanted the job that best suited you, the one that would help you achieve the most at the moment, especially if you allow that you have no idea what that might look like, then the loss of a specific possibility does not leave you embattled. Instead of ‘losing’ to the universe, you are in reality being guided and cared for.

To approach your life in this manner clearly reduces the chances that you fnd yourself at odds with what is, and thus disempowered and fuming.

And in a sense, this is the model the animals live. They never question the ‘rightness’ of a particular occurrence. They accept it and act accordingly. There is nothing wasted on raging at the universe or any of its actors. It is, we must note, a good place to start.

Wild animals have their ‘stuff’ too, but in this case, they really do offer a wonderful example of how to live in concert with the winds of universal intent. They are free from the suffering that your desires and disappointments create for you. Not to mention the devastating affects that anger inflicts on both the one from whom it arises and anything at which it is directed.

Your anger—and all of you feel it from time to time—can be diminished as you are able to let go of your need to control entirely from the place of ego, of the small self, of the all-too-human perspective. The more you are able to surrender the final outcome of everything to the divine, the less you set yourself up for the fall that always precedes uncontrolled, ego-driven anger.

This is something we urge you to work toward in your life, if only because you will be freer and more peaceful as a result. Your energies will be more available for the things that really matter to you, and you will ultimately be much more powerful, much stronger, if you join forces with the universal ones instead of struggling to hold your own without a functioning compass.

This is true self-interest at work.

But what of things that just aren’t right? How about war and torture and ruthless greed? What of rape and murder and genocide? How about wanton destruction of the earth in pursuit of wealth? Is it not inherently good to be angry about such bad things? Should you really be renouncing your impulse to fury when undeniable harm is done?

Here is where it becomes a litle more complex. Here is where it becomes essential to locate the source and motive of your anger. The anger that you feel when your will is obstructed comes from the ego, from the egoic mind.

You have set yourself upon a course and you have desired an outcome that suits you. A person, a place, a thing. You “want.”

But when you look out and see cruelty and disregard for both the human and divine in other beings, then your heart is broken.

White family under Obongo, literally living in their car.  Under Trump, wages and jobs came roaring back, but Beijing Biden, elected by theft, would end this,

You feel pain that is subtly different from the pain you feel when you don’t get something you long for.

Yes, it can be said that you long for justice, freedom and peace on your planet. For all. But it arises from the heart and not from the mind.

Just check out a few of the things you want. See if by feeling into them you can identify the origin of the longing. We think you will see that there is a difference, that the rage that screams against wrongs done is sourced from the heart, while fury that comes from insurmountable obstacles comes from a litle lower down. Or higher up.

You should look for your own experience, as it varies. But there is a difference and if you are to handle anger skilfully, you need to be able to find it.

Anger that arises from the heart is based in love, empathy and oneness.

Anger that arises from the will is based on the egoic mind, identification with wants, not needs, and feeling separation from others.

You can lessen the impact of the latter by surrendering not the longings, but a measure of the specifcs of your personal direction to the universe. You can use the former to move toward oneness if you stay in the place of its origin—in the heart.

What often happens is that a broken heart leads to anger which manifests as the wild and uncontrolled conflagration of the ego.

Take your anger about something bad that people do to one another or the earth, and act from love.

Do allow your actions to be fueled by the anger, which is a powerful force.

But act from love.

Sweet story of white caring…and note that they ARE released back, quite properly, into the wild….. In this incarnation they chose to be  deer.

For that is the seat of the anger and the only balm will be to make more love in the world.

However you move from your broken heart, whatever you do, do it with an energy of love.

Love is respecting an adult child’s right to make their choices — such as treason to their race and to their own parents — and my duty, out of tough love, and out of love for our entire race, not for just one person, is to draw the consequences.

True love is both yin and yang.

This doesn’t mean you have to put flowers in the barrels of guns, but it means that the energy which underlies your actions must be pure love. Otherwise, you have strayed into the very territory you abhor.

Please watch yourself closely in regard to your anger and that of others. Think about what we have said and see how it might apply to your own life.

There is enough suffering; it is time to let go of that which is both needless and energetically consuming. See how far you can get toward setting yourself free from this uniquely human curse. Get rid of that which serves you not, and fnd strength to love more in precisely
that which would otherwise shut down your heart.

Alchemy, dear ones. Transmute that energy to a good one. Be masters, first, of yourselves.

With all our love, without fail. — E. West

Brave, determined deer outruns wolf — hooray! Nature, in tough love, forces you to evolve or be eaten!

Silly wabbit! Seeing tyranny arise, good people certainly do not kill THEMSELVES!
