Acharya Prashant explains that while awareness can provide a brief moment to pause before reacting to anger, focusing solely on the event of anger is insufficient. He compares anger to a skin boil, which is merely a symptom of internal toxicity rather than a localized problem. If anger occurs frequently, it indicates that one's entire way of living is flawed. He asserts that anger arises from expectations, desires, and lust; when a desire is not fulfilled, anger follows. Therefore, one must examine the nature of their desires and whether those desires are truly their own to bring about purity and change.
