Thank you Venerable Wuling! (1) Does impatience fall into the category of greed (one of the 3 primary afflictions)? (2) If so, then by being more aware of and making efforts to lower our greed, we will also naturally become more patient?
Since impatience arises when we fail to get what we want, I'd say yes, it's a form of greed. Craving less and according more, we'll find that we're more accepting of the reality of everyday conditions. When we're more accepting, we'll find we're less impatient. Desires and expectations will have been replaced with understanding. And we'll be more content.
