PONDER on THIS for Friday, March 5th, 2010 by Paul Rademacher in A SPIRITUAL HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE TO THE UNIVERSE

“Rage can be a very telling thing. It has the potential to be one of the greatest teachers, because it lets us know when we’re coming dangerously close to an unconscious life theme. And why is it unconscious? Because we’re so embarrassed or threatened by it that we don’t even want to admit it to ourselves. So we lock it up in the dungeon of our forgotten memories and assign rage to act as a sentry, armed with instructions to shoot first and ask questions never!

If we’re aware enough to step back from our rage for just a moment, it can sometimes allow us to see unconscious forces that have been driving us since childhood. Compulsions and motivations that have lingered in the background can snap into focus. New insights can emerge that have the power to set us free – if we’re aware.”

Paul Rademacher, in “A Spiritual Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Universe”
