Psychological Approach; Anger Management; Contemporary World
摘要
This paper aims to propose a Buddhist psychological framework for managing anger in the modern world. It applies Buddhist psychological principles to analyze general problematic situations, the origins of anger, and methods for anger management in modern contexts. This article emphasises three effective strategies for managing anger: 1) The Buddhist behavioural changing involves relaxation methods consisting of the threefold purity of bodily behaviour (kāyasucarita) and communication, which is the fourfold purity of verbal behaviour (vacīsucarita) for controlling anger. 2) The Buddhist cognitive restructuring involves identifying automatic thoughts, recognizing cognitive distortions, and substituting positive thoughts to manage anger effectively. 3) The Buddhist wisdom approach encompasses the application of wisdom through rational attention (yonisomanasikāra) and mindfulness meditation. The outcomes of implementing these methods empower individuals to effectively manage anger and foster mental growth in the contemporary world.
