UG points out that our acquired thoughts, values and norms condemn natural emotions like fear, anger and desire while goading us to pursue their opposites.
We are saddled with all kinds of culturally imposed thoughts about raw emotions. We borrow 'the lens of thought' for everything and have stopped dealing with life or its raw emotions 'directly'.
The false pursuit of desirelessness, of freedom from anger, freedom from fear keeps us ignorant about life and its eternal flow!
