"I sometimes have vague feelings of gloom and irritation. The duration is variable, but they disappear at some point. Should I find out the cause to resolve them? If I know they go away spontaneously, should I wait for them to do so?"
This is the content of concern.
All human beings have negative feelings, such as gloom, irritation, and uncomfortable, as well as feelings of excitement, joy, good, and happiness.
We don't feel uncomfortable about excitement and happiness, but we are very concerned about vague feelings of gloom and irritation.
Both of these happy and gloom feelings do not last forever, they repeat.
Our feelings are also related to the weather and climate where we live.
It rains a lot in Seattle, USA, and it has many cloudy days in London, UK, but that is normal.
It is the same with the human personality.
Some people are often happy all year round, while others have many cloudy days, but we shouldn't think they are strange or abnormal.
If we feel that when happy feelings occur, we can accept them easily, while when gloom feelings occur, negativity is not acceptable.
On the contrary, negative and gloom feelings happen, and we get depressed.
If we don't want to become stuck in gloom and irritation, we have to have "vows".
"Vows" is to have a state of being that we really want to be, and to do for the purpose.
When we have vows, we can no longer say that this is not good every time, and we are not bothered by various things that others say to us.
In order not to become stuck in a little bit of rain, cloudy, snow, hail, or thunder, we have to have "vows".
In conclusion, Osho Taigu says that it is okay to have feelings of irritation and gloom.
