Hello Steve Salter, Magne Aga and K-List people:

Steve I have just read your posts on anger. I too have a similiar
problem with it. I wish I could offer you some good advise on how to
successfully deal with anger but I can't because I don't know how to
deal with my own anger.

Some thoughts. I have recently been working with a social worker on the
problem of my anger when an idea occurred to me. I have noticed that
when my anger flares up is in a situation in which I experience
frustration. At this time I have noticed that I have 3 or 4 seconds
before I explode in anger. I asked the social worker "what would you
think if I talked to myself outloud 'I am going to be calm, I will keep
my head and everything is going to be alright'." She told me to try it.
I don't know where anger comes from. Like you, Steve, I am the black
sheep of the family. I did not want to go to their Thanksgiving day
celebration but I did. I too was mistreated by the elementry school.
I remember spending much time sitting in the 'cloak room' where I was
told to sit by the teacher. I remembering being ridiculed in front of
the other children by the teacher. For me the worst years were in grade
school grades k through 7. At that time I hated everyone.

I found Magne Aga's post very interesting. I wish Magne would tell us
how to move these energies arround. "Move the energy from the kidneys
to Svadhistana, beneath the navel..." How? By visualizing? Magne
please tell us.

Magne also mentioned letting the spirit do the work. How? Do we tell
the spirit what we want it to do? Please inform us.

Another thing I have been doing. I have been using the first 2 hours of
the day to meditate. For the first 20 minutes I lay in the corpse
position and mentally chant "Om mane padme hung", then I sit in a chair
and or walk arround verbally chanting the same mantra for one hour and
40 minutes. I don't know if this will help but it is what I am doing
now.

Another thing I have done is to make an appointment with a social worker
to begin working on this problem. I have also been asking other people
how they deal with frustrating situations without loosing their heads to
anger.

Steve maybe we expected something from this world that we just never
got. I myself am not happy with god, life on this earth, the land that
I live in or my situation in life. Maybe the anger is coming from our
having been let down by life.

I also thought Lesley Richards had a nice post, saying that you are not
alone. As you can see there are others like us. Perhaps we need a
society like Alcoholics Annonamus (sp?). It seems we are powerless over
our anger problem, as are the alcoholics over their drinking problem.
They say the first step is to acknowledge the problem and ask for help.
They believe in turning the problem over to a higher power.

Perhaps we can all help each other.

Richard
