| Oct 3, 2022 at 14:23 | comment | added | Rabbi Kaii | @Esther this goes well with Chassidic teachings that our middot are our "measure" of emotions, i.e. what we consider (knowledge) acceptable behaviours during various emotional states. Our knowledge is the part of our Chabad where our emotions flow from, after passing through one of the 49 (emotional) gates of Binah. Purifying (and oiling) these gates is achieved by learning Torah and making it penimi, re-writing our Da'at. If we do this we can achieve the ability to completely control our emotions, and rely on them to be nachon (see "judgements of the heart": sefaria.org/Rosh_Hashanah.21b.12) | |

| Sep 1, 2022 at 17:08 | comment | added | Esther | I always learned that emotions come from actions/thoughts/knowledge, and our responsibility is to do things that cause the emotions, but ultimately emotions are not necessarily conrollable (although what you do with them is, for example anger might come on it's own, but breaking things in anger is considered similar to avoda zara) | |
