 | Imagine that with the mere touch of a button, we had full control of our psyche and personality…
What a great article! I really needed to read this today. Thanks, Chana! I hope you are having a great day.

You know thats some very good stuff right there but the thing is that the way to achieve moach shalit al halev can't just solely be Torah, then the whole religious community would be quite fine wouldn't it? How about you tell us exactly which part of Torah or Chassidus to study.

Ipods are the best. I listen to the Chabad Rabbis all day long. The Chabad Rabbis are the best. But Breslovers have the best music.

that's so interesting. I run Bnos Chabad pograms at the local Lubavitch girls high school. We picked as our theme this year MPme - Make it Part of Me. We spoke about how at birth our neshoma/soul is like a new MP3 player - totally fresh and clean. Throughout our lives we see, hear and experience many different things. It's up to us which experiences we choose to 'upload and save' and which ones we choose to 'delete' so that we keep improving our 'playlist.'
This article will definitely be useful!!
Thanks

Very GOOD Ms. Chana!. As far as which part of the Torah ..to Eliezer..All of the Torah is to be studied. For It is one and whole with He Who is All. It's like a tune, a foriegn language, etc., when you hear or read something so many times it becomes part of your concious, subconsious and thus part of you and you an extention of it. What you put in will come out. Practice makes perfect.

I disagree that anger is a useless feeling. Anger can serve as a great motivating force. When people get angry at their elected politicians, they take action. If someone is angry at a situation, they will make an effort to change it.
I was a bit annoyed at your remark that anger is a useless feeling and it motivated me to write this post. So, anger isn't necessarily a useless feeling. It can be very motivating.

Righteous anger..those things that would anger Him,..which is different than the anger that most of us human beings feel,could take so much control of the mind and concious that it clouds your vision. Anger can so influence one that they may not be able to see the good if it zapped them. It can affect one emotionally, phyically and spiritualy.These type of issues such as anger, need to be held in check or the embers can become a raging fire..out of control. Anger or fire can be useful..just depends on what it is used for. Annyed is not anger.

For those of you who think you can't control your anger - it's amazing what happens when someone at home is angry - and then the dinner guests arrive. Or if a man driving gets dinged by another car, steps out of his car ready to kill the other driver, and then sees that she's a gorgeous lady. In both cases, the person calms down quite quickly!

Once a person stumbles upon an emotional clinging to this meditative practice would that be paradox to the very thing we are trying to acheive? Never the less I have personally met people in this spiratual exctacy that is burning with an oil that has never been quenched. So what is there that must be done? So what is distinguishing pleasure from the seven emotions?
|
why it may be true that we can control our emotions to a point, I do believe that there are certain situations that can cause us to become paralyze and we can get stuck in the emotional patterns, and thus I find it beyond my control to get out. what can I do?
