Becoming Angry, becoming loving, but only carrying hate (Part-2)

(Lengthy blogs tend to test the 'patience' of a reader.. so I had tried to put 'extras' as comments at: http://www.speakingtree.in/public/spiritual-blogs/seekers/science-of-spirituality/becoming-angry-becoming-loving-but-only-carrying-hate

Here are those 'extras'!

Quote:

(1)Chai thandaa ho gaya... phir se garam karoon kya?
Nahi fresh banao... waapas garam karna ... taste achha nahi lagta...
Anger thanda ho gaya...!!! (thermos flask hai kya?)... Mujhe hasao mat... gussa utar jayega... gussa hokar bolunga tho woh seriously sunega!
Psn


(2)Anger Management!
May be! When Management Guru's say so.. it must be true....
For me it was just like that steel tumbler with hot chai... too hot to hold... put it down!... Cannot gulp it...
Anger manages us... we cannot even manage ourselves... how are we going to Manage-Anger-ji!...
When a kid, I remember, my mom managed her anger when we were at our ancestral home at that village .. Only my grandmother had the authority to 'show' anger at me (fortunately, there were very few occasions.. the items of daily use were sturdy... not use-and-throw.. not once-use-only... so no serious breakages to warrant some anger from elders!
At school, we had a Hindi class... the lesson was about 'kahaavat'... Thus came, that 'aag-baboola Hona!'.. it left us non-hindi kids clueless... Teacher told us it was 'Krodit hona' ... During lunch, we were curious... one of us volunteered, to become 'aag-baboola' (fiery looking)... the poor kid could not hold it for too long... he said, "Arey jaldi kuch karo, mere aag-baboola hone ka... jyada der pakad ke nahi rakh paoonga, yeh aag!'... it was yet another stupidity of ours when we non-hindi-kids attempted to help each-other as a group, at least one should have been a shudh-hindi-wala... we were as stupid as any other of that group!
...
Today, anger is available in the air itself... doesn't matter if we cannot even carry it! Even that routine monotonous 'good morning' at the work place... almost as compulsory as the signing of the attendance-register... has a whiff/fragrance of some subtle anger (crowded bus-travel, burnt-bread-breakfast.... etc)... it is rarely with the warmth of a smile, a genuine smile! So, yes.. may be... we now can manage anger, like we manage the 24-hour-Airconditioned room/office that we live in!
