Through the selfless practices of Tantra and Guru Yoga, RamDev outlines how to have a conscious relationship with anger rather than allowing it to consume us.

This time on Healing at the Edge, RamDev gives a talk on:
- Having a neutral view of anger (not good v. bad) and consciously allowing ourselves to feel it
- Recognizing anger as a valid response to the state of the world
- Seeing all beings and experiences—even those that trigger anger—as expressions of the Divine
- Noticing that we are often not angry for the reasons we think we are
- Lessening one’s self-absorption as a key point of the spiritual path
- Cultivating gratitude and appreciation for everyone we encounter
- Exploring Guru Yoga: merging with the guru’s wisdom and presence
- Realizing our inherent wholeness and receiving blessings from the guru
- Becoming nobody so that there is no one to become lost in anger
- Transmuting outer devotion to tantric, inner devotion
- Feeling anger and sadness without becoming consumed by it
- Remembering that the same shakti fueling anger can also power creativity
“Anger is not good or bad. Anger is often a reasonable response to what is going on in the world. Yet, it is a difficult emotion because it’s so hot, and it’s often very sudden. In Buddhism, fear and anger are thought to be the same emotion.” – RamDev
