Nobody likes anger, but still we usually understand little about it, so ancient Vedic Rasa science can teach us a lot. Many feel powerless even to stop the feeling once it comes. And yet even just by understanding how the Rasa of anger depends on the fire element in the body, we can find many ways to cool down. Anger also relates to how we deal with other emotions and especially with our expectations. We can learn to defend ourselves more peacefully by being straightforward and without suppressing the anger, which is very unhealthy. Forgiveness requires a thorough contemplation on the reasons why people do wrong things. Through Anger Sadhana in yoga alternative anger management techniques are put forward that ultimately will lead us to let go of anger altogether. Rasa Sadhana is also possible with many of the other Rasas - see other classes.
