Paramahansa Yogananda on "Mastering Your Moods"
|
|
Millions of people are walking the earth thinking they are free. But are they truly free? They imagine they are doing what they want to do, but in truth their actions are compelled mostly by their moods. Freedom to do exactly what one wants to do, arising naturally from what one ought to do, comes only when the ego's moods are mastered.
No one really wants to go through life in gloomy moods. It is so much better to be peaceful than to be angry. Yet despite good resolutions to the contrary, as soon as somebody does a little thing that the ill-tempered person doesn't like, his face becomes flushed with anger and he is wholly subject to that ugly mood. From morning until evening most everyone indulges in their different moods. Analyze yourself: Sometimes you are happy, sometimes you are peevish, sometimes you are sad or discouraged, and so forth. Day after day, you go on living with these ups and downs because you don't know how to control them.
