Does anger sometimes get the better of you, leaving you to regret the consequences later? Sadhguru answers a question on why anger seems to have such a hold on us and what we can do about it.

是否有時候憤怒會讓你失去理智,，過后又對發(fā)生的事情后悔？薩古魯回答了為什么憤怒似乎總能左右我們以及我們能對此做些什么,。

Questioner: In some situations we lose our temper, but it is only later that we realize our stupidity. By then it is too late. How can we control our anger?

提問者：在某些情形里我們會脾氣失控,，但之后我們才意識到我們的愚蠢。然而那時候已經太晚了,。我們怎樣才能控制我們的憤怒,？

Sadhguru: There is no need to control anger. Right now, are you angry? No. So why should you control something that does not exist? How can you control something that does not exist?

Sadhguru（薩古魯）：不需要去控制憤怒。現(xiàn)在,，你憤怒嗎,？并不。所以,，為什么你要控制并不存在的東西,？你怎樣才能控制并不存在的東西？

Anger is a certain level of unpleasantness, both for you and everyone around you. Most of the time you suffer more than your victim. And when you get angry, you could do the most idiotic things of your life. It is definitely not an intelligent way to exist.

憤怒是某種程度的不愉快,，你不愉快,，你周圍的人也不愉快。大多數情況下,，你遭受的痛苦要大于你生氣的對象,。當你生氣時，你可能做出一生中最愚蠢的事情,。這肯定不是一種明智的存在方式,。

Being angry about something or the other comes from a strong sense of likes and dislikes. This comes from a very deep identification of a certain way of thinking and feeling, which according to you, is the best way to live, think and feel. When someone is not in line with that, you get angry with them. As your likes and dislikes and your identifications with something or the other become stronger, all that you are doing is excluding the existence. If you say, “I like this very much,” you are excluding the rest of the existence in a big way at that moment. The stronger the like or dislike becomes, the deeper the exclusion becomes. Anger overflows because you have not included someone or something as a part of yourself. The very process of liberation is to include, not exclude. In inclusion, you become liberated. The day when everything, the whole existence, is included in you, you are liberated. In exclusion you become trapped, you become separate.

對于某樣事物產生憤怒,，源自于強烈的好惡,。這源于對某種思維或感覺方式的非常深的認同，那些方式對你而言是生活,、思考和感受的最佳方式,。如果有人跟你的方式不同，你就會對他們感到憤怒,。隨著你的好惡和對于某種事物認同變得愈加強烈,，你所做的就是將存在排除在外。如果你說,，“我非常喜歡這個”,，在那一刻，你把除此以外的東西都徹底排除掉了,。好惡愈強烈,，排他性愈深。之所以有過多的憤怒,，是因為你沒有把某個人,、某件事看作你自己的一部分。解脫的過程就在于包容,，而不是排他,。在包容里，你得以解脫,。當有一天,，所有的事情、整個的存在,，你都全然包容,，你便得以解脫。但在排他中,，你會被困住,，與萬物分離。

Anger is Your Creation

憤怒是你的創(chuàng)造

You do not wish to be angry, of course, but it is happening because you are creating an outside source for what is happening within you – which is not true. Just see that it is something that you are creating. Why are you creating something that you do not want? There is only one basic cause – you are ignorant of yourself.

你當然不希望變得憤怒,，但憤怒之所以產生,，源于你為內在發(fā)生的事情創(chuàng)造了外在來源——這是不正確的。請明白是你創(chuàng)造了這些事情,。為什么你要創(chuàng)造一些你不想要的東西,？只有一個基本原因——你對自己一無所知。

If you knew how your system functions and how to manage this system, why would you create anger? Anger is not only damaging the external situation, it is also damaging the internal situation. People are causing enormous amounts of anger within and creating health problems for themselves. Accordingly, consequences will happen for external situations.

如果你知道你的系統(tǒng)如何運作以及如何去管理它，你為什么要創(chuàng)造憤怒,？憤怒不僅僅對外在情形有傷害,，對于你的內在也會造成傷害,。人們在自己內在創(chuàng)造了大量的憤怒,，也造成了健康的問題。外在的情形也會產生相應的后果,。

For every action that you perform, there is a consequence. You cannot avoid the consequence. When you cannot avoid the consequence, action should be controlled. Actions can be controlled only if a human being is controlled within himself. When he is in perfect balance, only then will he perform harmonious action. Still there are consequences; that is always there. There are enough consequences in the life process as it is. You do not have to go about creating new consequences for yourself.

你做出的每一個行為,，都有相應的后果。你不能避免這些后果,。當你不能避免后果發(fā)生時,，行為應當有所控制。人類只有內在有所控制時,，行為才能得到控制,。當一個人處于完美平衡的狀態(tài)，只有那時他才能做出和諧的行為,。但仍會有后果,；后果一直都會產生。生命的進程本就會產生足夠的后果,。你不需要再為自己創(chuàng)造新的后果,。

So, especially if situations around you are rotten, is it not very important that you keep yourself in the most pleasant possible manner and see how to spread this pleasantness around you? If your actions were coming from your intelligence, this is how you would act. If situations around you are hopeless, it is all the more important that you keep yourself as beautiful as possible and see how to make it happen. Whatever you are, that is what you will spread around you. If you are angry, you will spread anger. With anger, more unpleasantness will come into the situations around you.

因此，尤其是你周圍的環(huán)境極壞時,，讓自己盡可能保持愉悅的態(tài)度,，并觀察如何在周圍傳播這一份愉悅，難道不是很重要的嗎,？如果你的行為源自你的智慧,，這就是你會做的事情。如果你處于一個絕望的環(huán)境中,，那么讓自己盡可能變得美好,，并觀察如何做到這一點就顯得尤為重要。你是怎樣的狀態(tài),，你就會在周圍傳播那種狀態(tài),。如果你是憤怒的，那你就會傳播憤怒,。因為憤怒,，你周圍的情況就會產生更多的不愉快,。

Seeking Intensity

尋找強烈

Anger is enormous intensity. Intensity is the only thing that man is seeking. The reason why all the thrillers, action movies, and sports events are so popular is because people want some intensity, somewhere. The only way they know how to be intense is either through physical action, or through anger, or through pain. The very reason why drugs and sex have become such big things in the world is because somehow, people want to experience some intensity at least for a few moments. Intensity releases you from many things. Anger could also release you from many things, but the problem with anger is, it is not pure intensity within you; it gets entangled with the situations around.

憤怒的強度很高。強烈是人們尋找的唯一東西,。因為人們想要在某些地方尋求強烈,，所以恐怖片、動作片,、體育賽事如此受歡迎,。他們知道獲得強烈的唯一方式，要么是通過身體上的動作,，要么是通過憤怒,，或是通過疼痛。人們想要通過某些事情體驗到哪怕至少是片刻的強烈,，這也是為什么毒品和性在世界上變得如此重要的原因,。強烈能讓你從很多事情中釋放出來。憤怒也能讓你從很多事情中釋放出來,，但憤怒的問題在于,，憤怒不是你內在的純粹的強烈；它跟周圍的情況糾纏在一起,。

It is not necessary that only your anger should propel you into action. The most intense experience you have had in your life is probably anger. That is the reason why you are sanctifying anger, because it propels you into action. Unfortunately, you have never known the intensity of joy or love. But love and compassion can also propel you into action – very gently, but very wonderfully and effectively.

只任由你的憤怒去推動你采取行動，這是沒必要的,。你一生中最強烈的體驗可能就是憤怒,。這也是為什么你會允許憤怒產生，因為它推動你去行動,。不幸的是,，你從來都不知曉喜悅和愛的強度。而愛和同情同樣可以推動你采取行動——非常溫和,，但也非常美妙和有效,。

At work and at home, would you like to live with angry people, or peaceful and joyful people? Obviously you would want to live with peaceful and joyous people. Please remember, everybody around you is expecting the same thing. Every human being around you is always expecting to live and work with people who are peaceful and joyful.

工作時，在家時,，你喜歡跟憤怒的人還是平靜且喜悅的人在一起,？很明顯，你更想跟平靜且喜悅的人在一起,。請記住,，你周圍的每一個人也期待著同樣的事情。每一個在你周圍的人,，總是希望跟平靜且喜悅的人一起生活和工作,。
