When you find yourself caught in wanting or not wanting (greed or hatred), reflect on the “fire triangle of passion”. Which element are you increasing? Finding more fuel (directing your senses) Increasing the heat (dwelling on and enhancing emotions) Self-identification and attachment (I am the one who wants or doesn’t want).
