Thought for the Day

So long as there is the feeling of anger and ego in our hearts, we will not be able to feel well in our life; we will feel sick in our mind. One’s anger is one’s greatest enemy and one’s calmness is one’s protection. The one who is possessed by anger will be hated by people because the person will commit a number of bad deeds. Sometimes, ego also joins the feeling of anger. Living life obsessed with pride, ego and anger is harmful. If we aim at transcendental reality and Divinity, we must decide to bring this great emotion of anger under control. While the funeral pyre consumes the dead, chinta, or an agitated mind, reduces to ashes the living body. It is a living death if one is obsessed by pride, ego and anger. Anger is caused by weakness. It is not the weakness of the body but of the mind. To give strength to our mind and remove the weakness from our mind, it is necessary to fill it with good thoughts, good feelings and good ideas.
