Everyone has its own mood
obstacle. Most people’s personal emotion or feeling is easy to be affected by
others mood such as anger, anxiety, excitement or depression. Especially, in a
family or in a group, the member’s mood may affect to each other. When the mood
is negative, such as anger, hatred, complain, sad or anxiety, it may affect the
member’s ability to learn anything and may result in the bad performance in
studying or in career.
Of course, our personal
mood may also affect the emotion of others. Some people’s mood is easy to come
and go. For example, they may be in happiness at this moment, however, they may
be in anger at next moment and thus to shock us.
Knowing the impermanence of
joy and anger, we know that we should learn and train our minds and emotions to
be stable and to keep our heart at peace. But, how can we do that? Learning
Buddha is one way. Meditation-sitting and keep mindfulness is a good way. Doing
so would also help us resist the negative effects from the other negative
emotions.
