Just Angry

A student asks Suzuki, what about "just anger?" If we're just angry isn't that the same as "just to sit?" It goes on for a while back and forth and then Suzuki says, "You cannot be angry when you loose yourself." -------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-07-24 as found on shunryusuzuki.com.
