Anger is not something to suppress.
It is something to be aware of.
But awareness is not the end.
This is where many people,
even those who teach mindfulness,
miss the point.
To be aware of anger
is not merely to notice, observe,
or manage your anger.
Look deeper.
Who is aware of the anger?
You are not the anger,
because you can see it.
Anger arises.
Anger changes.
Anger disappears.
But what is it that knows
that anger is there?
Do not stop at awareness.
Turn your attention to the one
who is aware.
That is where the question begins:
Who am I?
