Anger decoded
--------------------------
The sources of learnings are many. Experience is so important to teach practically the benefits of learnings & applications.The teachings of great personalities past and present when consumed with right earnest,the same enlightens a person.The enlightening heart finds an expression in a radiant/basking face.
One of the great personalities to ever tread on Indian soil was Chanakya or Kautilya, a popular name.Teachings of Chanakya are beyond time to remain relevant in all ages.On anger,the views
of Chanakya are so practical,devoid of any sermon.
Chanakya believed that anger is one's greatest enemy as long as the same is
used for fulfilling the vested interest. But Simultaneously,he professed that anger could be a boon when utilized for the cause of the nation building.
At times,the anger is to be swallowed depending on a context and ultimate aim of protecting national interest.Not a permanet feature to forget the anger completely.Convert anger into strong resolution & the resolution into one's determination.Wait for the opportune moment to arrive but never give up the preparedness in between.
His philosophy was not confined to recitation in verses alone. He himself lived it word by word.While leaving the court of the king Dhana Nanda,he was fearless,giving the emperor an open challenge to destroy Nanda dynasty from the root and install an able and deserving person on the throne.The rest is history.
As a master and mentor,he rightly expected that the pupils being taught by him and the believers in his way of life & philosophy also followed the same in letter and spirit.Not in mere words but in actions.
Wishing a beautiful day.
