Interesting point.
Standing face to face with your emotions means being centred. It means realizing instantaneously that those emotions are not self but come to the self. Like fears.
If one cannot identify the real source of emotions and rear, he can at least realize that they are energy movements that are not initiated from the self but that invade the self insidiously.
