Ep #111 Minutes of Happiness - Hate is a very strong word - a podcast by Raina Jain

I was recently asked, "have you ever felt hatred towards anyone"? And I said, "I think hate is a very strong word. I don’t remember the last time I felt hatred towards anyone. But every time, there’s a negative emotion produced by someone else or any external event - I tend to ask myself: what is it trying to tell me about myself? So for example, every time I browse through my Instagram, I see a lot of people getting married - so I ask myself? Why do I feel uncomfortable - is this situation producing a feeling of fear or loneliness or discomfort - it’s just about getting in touch with that feeling.
Or every time someone criticises your work - is that criticism producing a feeling of self-doubt or worthlessness.
Just get into the habit of asking yourself “what emotion is being triggered in me by external events” And then you’ll start creating a life that is full of awareness"
