Om Swami
Why can't I control my anger just by wanting to?
Restraint does not come by wishing
Self-control of the mind does not come by wishing, though everyone wants to be free of anger and be happy. Whether something is right for you is known only by trying it.
In the yoga of self-restraint, control over the mind does not come by wishing. Everyone wants not to be angry, everyone wants to be happy.
