Buddhist Inspiration

It is not that anger and desire are inherently evil or that we should feel ashamed when they arise. It is a matter of seeing them as the delusions that they are: distorted conceptions that paint a false picture of reality. They are negative because they lead to unhappiness and confusion.

This is truely great and greatly true because we all feel anger and desire and the difference between making them productive or not is our choice. Thank you.
