Richard, you have written that it took three weeks for you to rid yourself of anger. Can you please sketch what you did in that time? Were you analysing, reflecting on all possible situations in which anger arises? Or were you angry at something and tried to observe it deeply? Were you making yourself mad by thinking about various situations and through self-observation and reasoning and attentiveness eradicated it? Were you isolated at this point or did this exercise with your partner? * Richard, have you encountered a situation where people want to test your ‘harmlessness’ by poking, trying to be mean etc. in real lives?
