Acharya Prashant explains the phenomenon of emotional outbursts by examining the societal pressure to suppress one's true feelings. He begins by illustrating how people feel obligated to reciprocate pleasantries, like agreeing that it's a fine morning, even when they are feeling disgusted internally. This dishonesty is driven by the shame associated with revealing one's pain. In the developed world, it is almost a crime to not carry a smiling face, as it would expose the failure of society's promise to deliver happiness to mankind. The entire social structure is built on the premise that man will be at peace, and if people truthfully admit they are not, this structure would crumble. This pressure forces individuals to not only hide their hurt and trauma from others but also from themselves, pretending everything is alright even when looking in the mirror. This continuous suppression of feelings for long periods inevitably leads to an explosion. The speaker compares this to a container that can only withstand pressure up to a certain point before bursting. When these emotional outbursts happen, people are taken by surprise, wondering how a seemingly civilized, gentle, or composed person could explode in such a manner. He asserts that the explosion is the fact, while the calmness was merely a veneer, a facade, or a mask. The explosion reveals that the calmness was never real, only a pretension. He contrasts these individuals with those who are expressive and are often labeled as moody or whimsical, noting that the latter do not restrain themselves. Our training is such that we value the composed ones and do not give a place to those who are expressive. Acharya Prashant clarifies that emotional outbursts do not happen in a vacuum; there is an entire process behind them involving the mind, body, fear, attachment, naming (victimization), and finally, suppression. He urges the audience not to wait for the explosion and, if it happens, not to merely treat the symptom. Instead, one must go deeper to understand the root cause, which lies in one's entire lifestyle and moment-to-moment choices. He points out that life is a total web where every choice, like the brand of soap one buys, is connected to one's emotional stability. The problem is not the event of the outburst but the entire process of living that leads to it. He concludes by highlighting the over-reliance on the mind and knowledge, which leads to a life of calculation and planning driven by fear and a lack of love, spontaneity, and insight. He advises being more attentive and available to what is happening, rather than letting the flow of conditioning dominate.
