"Repressed anger does not form a new gland; it creates a knot in the body-mind that distorts our being and clouds our consciousness. Only through awareness and creative expression can we dissolve these knots and reclaim our vitality."
According to Osho, anger doesn’t create a new physical gland; when anger (or any strong emotion) is repressed, its unspent energy condenses into a granthi—a psycho-physical ‘knot’ or blockage in body-mind. These knots distort organs, cloud consciousness, and become disease. The chain breaks only by conscious, creative discharge (awareness, catharsis, constructive action), not by violent expression or suppression.
Anger doesn’t make a gland; if you bottle it up, it turns into a tight knot inside you—so use it wisely or release it safely.
Why this matters practically
- Prevent psychosomatic stress by transforming anger into constructive acts (movement, breathwork, creativity) instead of lashing out or stuffing it down.
- Maintain mental clarity and health by noticing surges early and giving them a safe outlet.
- Build better relationships by breaking the anger–reaction chain through awareness.
