Guest guest Posted February 13, 2002 Report Share Posted February 13, 2002 Cause Of Anger <br>-----------------<br><br>Anger makes everybody its slave and victim. It breaks the friendship of even very intimate friends. It excites all. It holds sway more or less over the whole world and the Devatas also. <br><br>Anger destroys reason and makes man do things which cannot be dreamt of. Under the influence of anger man abuses, insults and even murders his father, brother, wife, Guru or king and repents afterwards. <br><br>Anger influenced even Hanuman the mightiest Brahmachari to burn Lanka. He lost his understanding and then repented “Alas! I have burnt the whole of Lanka under the influence of anger. This fire might have burnt Mother Sita also. What shall I do now? How can I return without Janaki Devi? I became a victim to anger. How powerful is anger? I am a powerful Brahmachari. I have destroyed passion to its very root and branch and yet I have not controlled anger. How powerful it is! It is more powerful than passion.” <br><br>Passion is the root and anger the stem. You will have to destroy the root (passion) first, then the stem (anger) will die by itself. A passionate man is more angry. A man who has wasted his energy in lust becomes irritated soon for little things even. A Brahmachari who has preserved his Veerya always keeps a balanced mind. He has a cool brain at all times. <br><br>Eradicate anger. Manifest inner spiritual strength. Realise Satchidananda Atman. Glory unto those who have rooted out their anger and attained knowledge of the Self! <br><br> -- Swami Sivananda<br><br>Hari Aum !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
