在前篇文章，我介紹我們對「空」的想法，
那就是「空」意味著「無我」跟「無常」。
「無我」跟「無常」代表易變性，
易變性表示我們有控制變化的空間。
現在，我將更詳細的討論這一點，以「瞋」為例子吧！

| Fig. 1 A person's emotional progression, 圖 1 一個人情緒的發展 |
Figure 1 shows the progression of anger in a person. X-axis is the progression of time from left to right. Y-axis is the level of anger; higher the Y, more angry a person is. The curve that I have drawn is just an example of what I think a typical anger changes over time. Note that the anger level shown here is not what people can observe externally, but what a person really felt inside of himself. Because people can be good at acting, they can be smiling at you while be really angry at you all at the same time.
圖1顯示了一個人憤怒的進展。 X軸代表時間由左到右的進展。 Y 軸是憤怒的強度，越高代表越生氣。
我畫的曲線是一個普通人生氣的變化，從時間＝０開始。
請注意，這裡畫的憤怒強度不是外表所觀察的，
而是個人內心所感覺的。
因為有些人是可以同時對您生氣也跟您微笑。
At time = 0, a person start to feel angry. The anger proceeds quickly to its peak at point A, then it slowly fall backs down. Note that I didn't not drawn the anger back to zero, or no anger because most of the time, the anger still reside within us and we can never completely destroy it. This anger will sit in our subconscious, until next time we are angry. Then, it will surface, making us even more angry and say things like "You did this last time too!"
在時間＝０，一個人開始生氣了。
這個生氣的強度越來越高，達到它的最高點在Ａ，
之後，氣就慢慢消失。但我沒有畫氣消到０。
因為有時，這個氣會一直留在我們心裡，下一次有機會的話，
它就會再次出現，我們就會說類似「上一次，你也是一樣」的話。

| Fig. 2 Emotional progression of a person empirically understood anattā , 圖２ 一個體會無我的人情緒的發展 |
Figure 2 is another profile of anger. However, this one is totally different. The anger level quickly elevates and falls back to zero just as quickly. This means that this person, while feels anger, is able to quickly dissipate it and remove the anger from him permanently.
圖2是截然不同的憤怒進展圖。
生氣的強度迅速升高，也一樣快速的降回到零。
意味著：這個人雖然會生氣，但他能夠迅速，
也永久刪除這個氣，且徹底的從內心消除。
On the graph, I showed that the anger starts at time = 0, and the anger ends time = T. If T is less than a microsecond, and you are looking at this person, would you even be able to notice this person's anger?
在這個圖裡，我畫這個人的憤怒從時間 = 0開始，
在時間= T而滅掉。
如果0到T是不到一微秒的時間，
您會注意到這個人的憤怒嗎？
We can replace anger with any other emotions on these graphs, and they will all mean the same thing. The first graph shows how our emotions, as human beings, evolve within us. That we cannot control the duration and intensity of these emotions, we can only ride with it. The second graph shows how a person who empirically understand anattā can handle their emotions.
簡而言之，我們可以用其他的情緒來取代「瞋」。
第一張圖代表我們無法控制情緒的強度和時間的長度。
第二張圖顯示一個體會「無我」的人是如何處理自己的情緒。
If you can do this with all emotions all within a microseconds, would an observer think you have fully detached from your emotions? Of course! But what they don't know is that you have decided that the emotion is not worth exhibiting for all to see, and that's the topic of the next article.
如果您能在一微秒內起滅所有的情緒，
大家能觀察到您的情緒嗎？
當然不能！他們會以為您已經「放下一切」。
但他們不知道您在那短暫的時間，
已經決定這個情緒是不必要被人家看到的，
這將是下一篇文章中的主題。
