QUOTE : How do you release yourself? Through the analytic knowledge of facts. How can you stay angry if you are aware of yourself as a constantly changing process? The continuity of your anger gets broken. How can you stay depressed? The continuity of your sadness gets broken. It transforms. You associate with the not-mad and not-sad. You take responsibility for your mad and sad. You stop being stuck in those same old thought patterns. You stop thinking over and over again, „Well, I reacted once with anger, and now I‘m stuck here. There‘s nothing I can do about it.“ Because you absolutely can do something about it. The fact that you are selfless means that you are not a fixed entity; you are changeable. You can transform your thoughts in order to transform your life. (p. 67)
