On Negative Emotions


Negative emotions are like a light for human beings.
For without negative emotions we do not see our faults.
Negative emotions are like camphor; medicine for some,
poison for others.
Negative emotions are the root of benefiting beings.
When you know negative emotions, happiness begins.
When you do not see the negative emotions, suffering begins.
The essence of negative emotions is wisdom.

Kyabgon Phakchok Rinpoche
