Introduction

This is an excerpt of the text from the new experiment web site.

“Anger

Remember that all remedies start with knowing, we have to know the issue well before we can remedy it.

The following sections provide knowledge and insights about anger that will help you more effectively apply the remedies presented further down this page.

Types of Anger

The following are the three ways in which we get angry:

1.              Anger related to the body.

2.              Anger related to words

3.              Anger related to the mind

Anger Related to the Body

This type of anger has two aspects to it. One aspect concerns the expression of anger using the body, which can be destructive and physically harmful. The other aspect is anger being provoked by the body. For example, when our body is under strain, due to hot ambient temperatures, tiredness, feeling unwell or some kind of bodily pain. People are often more to become angry when they are tired, hungry and hot.

Anger Related to Words

This type of anger is where anger is expressed mainly with words. Such words are most always spoken with a very harsh tone and a higher than normal volume. The content of angry speech is usually derogative and ill willed.

Anger can also be provoked as a reaction to the words of others This type of anger is very common. Due to some words we can erupt with anger outwardly or either seethe with anger internally.

Anger Related to The mind

This type of anger is where anger is expressed in the mind. This anger could definitely filter down into action and become verbal and physical.

Anger of the mind can not exist without the help of thoughts and words. No one can get angry in their mind without thoughts and words.

Additional Notes

There are some additional types of anger that are worth knowing about as well.

There is an outward explosive type of anger and there is an inward implosive type of anger.

Anger can erupt suddenly or it build up slowly. Most of the time some sort of irritation or annoyance proceeds anger.

There are in fact many lesser forms of anger. Annoyance, irritation, agitation also vexation are lesser forms of anger.

Furthermore, we only ever get angry with ourselves, at others and at objects.

Understanding Anger

What Really is Anger About?

Anger believe it or not has a reason for being in us, and that reason is to remove obstacles. Anger is pure force that is applied in such a way to remove obstacles and shorten delays.

What makes anger, anger, as we know it, is that it is the destructive application of force. When we are angry our force or energy is directed against something or someone. If we can’t discharge the force evoked by anger against someone we discharge it against ourselves. Sometimes too, we get angry with ourselves and we discharge that force of anger against ourselves. I have seen many a person hit their own head against a wall in anger.

In essence, anger is about using force to solve a problem, and in most cases the amount of force used is excessive and the way it is used yields destructive results.

How Does Anger Work?

Thoughts and Words

Have you ever tried getting angry without words and thoughts? If you have tried you would have soon realized that it was near impossible.

The appearance of anger is dependent on our mind thinking and we think using words. There are always reasons why we get angry. The problem is that those reasons are processed at times so quickly. In many cases reacting with anger has become a habit and our psychology mechanically or automatically reacts with anger leaving us not knowing why. But really the reasons are there, they are just buried in our past or deep in our memory, in a place of our mind called the subconscious.

Never Alone

There is one very important property of anger that should not be ignored, and that is that, anger never comes alone. It always works in a pair or in a group. There is always some other interest or desire behind it, which anger defends, protects or removes any obstacles that stop or delay that desire from being fulfilled.

Perception of Being Harmed

Anger swells into action as soon as we perceive that something or someone is harming us or ill-affecting us. This is the magic trigger point for anger."
