Experiencing healing love and compassion will slowly relax the barriers that have been struggling to hold inner anger away from outer awareness so much so that the person doesn't even know that it exists. This subconscious struggle has an exhausting effect on the emotional life without any apparent cause. Eventually, healing love/compassion will permeate and completely melt inner aggression, a dra matic transformation on the path of preparation for awakening.
