How can it be that all of this is influencing my life to such an extent that it makes me suffer, that it is frustrating me, that I feel depressed about it, that I feel angry about it, that I feel sad about it.

And this is where now all this so-called inner work starts to take place, where the self-mastery takes place. You are not trying to solve the issues of your government.

And so what is the ultimate outcome of starting to invest some time in yourself? I would say you are getting more at ease regardless of what is happening on the outside.
