Anger is Heavy…. Let It Go.

 

I never understand why do we shout at each other when we are angry. The person is just next to us yet we shout, why?

Probably, we lose our calm so we shout. We shout loudly at things that aren’t ok.

But why shout when you can as well tell in a soft manner.

Here is a story that would help all of us understand why yelling, shouting, raising the tone happens when one is angry.

Once maha rishi Kashyap along with his disciples was visiting river Ganges to take bath. He heard a group of family members on the bank shouting and yelling at each other.  He turned to his disciples and asked them, “Why do people shout at each other when they are angry?” The disciples gave a number of answers but none of the answers satisfied the rishi.

He then explained, “When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout so that they are able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to be able to hear to cover the great distance.”

The disciple then asked, “So what happens when two people are in love?” The saint then explained the theory of love.

He said,” when two people are in love, they do not shout at each other. They speak softly because their hearts are very close to each other. The distance between them is either very small or non- existent.”

He further continued, “When the love between them grows stronger, they get closer to each other. Finally they come to a point where they just look at each other and they know what they have to say. That’s how close two people are when they are in love with each other.” 

The disciple then said to the rishi, “But anger comes from love. It is impossible to feel anger without love.”

The rishi looked at the disciple and further added,” Absolutely. So when you argue don’t let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other or else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find a path to return.”

The Fierce Form

 She is dark. She is fierce. She is death. She is doomsday. She is Shakti. She is destruction. She is the total energy of our universe. Yes, she is Kali.... Maa Kali. This quintessential embodiment of Shakti is female power. She is scary, bloodthirsty. She is destruction personified and the ultimate protector against evil. In spite of her terrible form, Mahakali is often considered the kindest and most loving of all the Hindu goddesses. She has dark complexion, red eyes, four arms and wears garland of skulls. This goddess will always be seen stepping over the chest of Lord Shiva, who is her husband. Ever wondered why? Let me take you to the episode of Goddess Kali in which she steps over Lord Shiva. There was once a demon named Rakhtbeej, Who was very powerful. He had acquired a boon that he could recreate himself as soon as even a single drop of blood falls on earth. This boon gave him the power to shake the gods. It was impossible for the gods to control his autocracy. Therefore ...

Insights of Bhagavad Gita

-
 Why do people say, "You open any page of Bhagavad Gita and you get the answer to your questions?" I have often wondered over this statement. Trying to analyze, I realized that Bhagavad Gita does not have all answers but reading it certainly helps you to get answers to the questions formed in your mind. It is subjective.  Yes, it is subjective because the book remains the same for all the readers but the perception, wisdom, and intelligence vary from reader to reader. Perhaps Bhagavad Gita enables one to get insights to the problems in the form of solutions. In my opinion, Bhagavad Gita is a book that gives you the way to live. Let's remove the religious aspect of it. Go back to history and understand the setting of Bhagavad Gita.  The Setting Of Bhagavad Gita is the battlefield of Kurukshetra, the Mahabharat where Arjun when comes before his respected elders is in a dilemma. He is confused. He hesitates to fight. He is very well aware of the fact that this battle will le...

KARMA....

 A man turns into something good by good actions and into something bad by bad actions . Karma, which means deeds is a concept in Hinduism that explains how the executed actions of an individual affect the individual and the life he or she lives. Karma simply means actions. Every action has its consequences so it is the choice - making of deeds which is the most effective way of creating the consequences of karma. Whatever we speak or think, we initiate something called force which reacts accordingly. Therefore most people are prisoners of karma.  Karmas are invisible fine particles of matter prevailing all around us just like air particles.   Time and Karma are inseparable. The law of karma is infallible and everyone invariably is subjected to it. Even the Maha Gyaanis and the Maha Purush of the Dwaparyug were not spared by karma. The conversation between Lord Krishna and Rukmani after the Mahabharata battle is significant and can help us to understand the theory of karm...
