On Anger and Closing the Circle of Suffering | Sister Chan Khong

  • 0:00 - 0:10
    sometimes is our case but we are so easily 
    irritated and easily explode or some friend
  • 0:10 - 0:19
    of me reporter oh my husband is like a bomb and 
    his temple the temple is like that his stem is
  • 0:19 - 0:27
    always like that and so I think that everything 
    is impermanent including our temple as a bone
  • 0:27 - 0:38
    and if we can know to be aware of yeah there's 
    something raising a kind of bridge and to start
  • 0:38 - 0:46
    to stir my heart and I think that I'm about to 
    scream or to shout and don't explode and then if
  • 0:46 - 0:54
    I go back to my in-breath and out-breath and that 
    agitation still there in your mind so you have
  • 0:54 - 0:58
    to go back to your in-breath and out-breath and 
    you cannot just sit down you have to make a walk
  • 0:58 - 1:07
    outside and you walk and your mind is totally 
    with the walking and coming releasing touching
  • 1:07 - 1:15
    my stability my peace and you live only in the 
    present moment when you walk on the street you
  • 1:15 - 1:23
    only pay attention on the content of your shoes 
    and the the sidewalk or you are there is a little
  • 1:23 - 1:30
    flower on the sidewalk you be you are totally with 
    the little flower on the sidewalk or with the tree
  • 1:30 - 1:38
    in front of you but don't let your mind carry you 
    away by that irritation and then that is not the
  • 1:38 - 1:46
    ground you you walk a few minutes and then you go 
    back and then you do the first part of stopping
  • 1:46 - 1:56
    to be carried away by anger by irritation you stop 
    and you look deeper that that is a big temper from
  • 1:56 - 2:03
    my father and they everything he it is a really 
    shout and and then it's like a wound in me and
  • 2:03 - 2:11
    then other one other one it's me and then I try to 
    suppress because I don't want to confront with the
  • 2:11 - 2:19
    the bomb in my father and then so I more and more 
    and when I'm free I explored my phone and so the
  • 2:19 - 2:27
    way to defuse the bomb in myself it means the 
    anger in myself this could be the transmission
  • 2:27 - 2:35
    of the habit of my father who used to shout the 
    habit of my mother or my uncle I don't know the
  • 2:35 - 2:41
    person who are close to you and then you used to 
    work with and to live with and then you just say
  • 2:41 - 2:52
    that hello uncle hello there that is your habit 
    that have I have received I will not repeat the
  • 2:52 - 2:59
    same because I have done and it's caused a lot 
    of misery to myself and to people around me so
  • 2:59 - 3:08
    you stopped the circle of suffering that habit 
    of exploding a shouting without coming and look
  • 3:08 - 3:17
    deeper and explained to roughly what do you 
    mean and what you end also with our listening
  • 3:17 - 3:24
    deeply what the other would person means so 
    when you listen deeply you speak calmly and
  • 3:24 - 3:33
    then you change the the circle in Buddhism we 
    called the circle of samsara it means samsara
  • 3:33 - 3:40
    min the suffering just many round of suffering 
    your father suffer because that bad habit and
  • 3:40 - 3:49
    transmitted to you and you transmit that met habit 
    and you do it and unconsciously instrument to your
  • 3:49 - 3:56
    children and people around you and they at the 
    beginning they could be a very good person they
  • 3:56 - 4:05
    even do not have any affinity of blood with you 
    but by working together with you and he's used
  • 4:05 - 4:11
    to your explosion of anger like that and his 
    suppressant and slowly is entering him and he
  • 4:11 - 4:18
    can behave differently so we stop by everything 
    go back to your in-breath coming living in the
  • 4:18 - 4:26
    present moment cutting your mind to thing in 
    that direction of carrying you away from me
  • 4:26 - 4:34
    please me and you say that it's always you always 
    resolve everything in peace and understanding in
  • 4:34 - 4:42
    love in deep listening understand have deep 
    communication and after that we can do it but
  • 4:42 - 4:48
    by doing so you need to remember go back to your 
    in-breath and out-breath and that is why in our
  • 4:48 - 4:55
    practice we propose that when you hear any big 
    noise like the telephone ring try not to answer
  • 4:55 - 5:03
    right away breathing in calm yourself breathing 
    every last time being relaxing and then you
  • 5:03 - 5:09
    pick up the telephone they would not stop right 
    away and so they ring about 1 or 2 and then so
  • 5:09 - 5:17
    that is a training for you to stop in the time 
    when you will not want to explore and by doing
  • 5:17 - 5:24
    so you stop the circle of suffering that that 
    habit transmitted to you from other generation
