ANGER

Swami Sivananda

Too much loss of semen is the chief cause of irritability and anger. 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 celibate who has preserved semen always keeps a balanced mind. He has a cool brain at all times. An aspirant should direct all his attention towards the conquest of this powerful enemy. Pure and light food, repetition of the Lord's name, regular meditation, prayer, company of the wise, selfless service, discrimination, dispassion, practice of control of breath and celibacy,—are some of the potent factors that pave a long way in eradicating this dire malady, anger.

All problems, as far as you are individually concerned, are self-wrought. If you are resolved within, then external problems lose their magnitude.

- Swami Sivananda

Read the lives of Mahatma Gandhiji, Swami Sivanandaji, Ramakrishna Paramahamsa,
Swami Vivekananda and other Saints. They will inspire you and guide you in the right path. You
may give up all things which contradict truth.
Each and every human being is a God in disguise. But saints are those who have removed

the cloak which hides the Divinity within.

ANGER

Swami Sivananda

If a man becomes irritable for trifling things very often, it is a definite sign of mental weakness. An easily irritable man is always unjust. He is swayed by impulses and emotions. Anger gains strength by repetitions. If it is checked then and there, man gains strength of will. When anger is controlled it becomes transmuted into spiritual energy with tremendous potentiality. Energy is wasted enormously when one gets angry. The whole nervous system is shattered by an outburst of anger. No one can check an angry man. He gets enormous strength for the time being and gets collapsed after sometime on account of reaction. Various types of poisonous currents are charged into the nervous and circulatory systems when one is angry. It takes days for restoration of normal equilibrium in the nervous system.

Read the lives of Mahatma Gandhiji, Swami Sivanandaji, Ramakrishna Paramahamsa,

Swami Vivekananda and other Saints. They will inspire you and guide you in the right path. You

may give up all things which contradict truth

Swami Chidananda

"Even this will pass away. " This is a good maxim to remember that our joys and sorrows are not permanent, and that we should always be therefore unattached and hopeful of a better future.

ANGER

Swami Sivananda

Hot words result in fighting and stabbing. The angry man is under intoxication. He completely loses his balance for the time being. Irritation, frowning resentment, indignation, rage, fury, wrath, ,—are all varieties of anger, according to the degree of its intensity. If a man wants to correct and educate another man and manifest slight anger unselfishly, as a means to check and improve him, then it is called 'righteous anger' or 'noble rage.' This is not bad. But the motive and the manner are important. When anger is an outcome of greed or selfish motives, it is bad. Sometimes a religious teacher has to manifest a little anger outwardly to correct his disciples. This is not bad. He has to do it. But he should be cool within. 

If you always wish for the welfare of others, for the prosperity of others, you automatically draw to yourself prosperity.

Radhe   krishna,

Have a blessed day,

ANGER Swami Sivananda Anger is a modification that arises in the mind-lake when passion and inertia predominate. It is a wave of unpleasant feeling that arises from within when one gets displeased with another. It is, in other words, a modification of desire or passion. Just as milk is changed into curd, so also desire or passion becomes changed into anger. It is a most formidable enemy of peace, knowledge and devotion. Anger resides in the astral body but it percolates into the physical body just as water percolates through the pores to the outer surface of an earthen pot. Just as heat melts lead, just as heat and borax melt gold, so also passion and anger, the two main qualities of the mind, melt its shape. Ever feel the presence of God. Know that God is merciful and kind. There is no end to His mercy. He is Kama Dhenu. Whatever you ask, He will give you. Have intense faith in Him. Acquire this faith by regular prayer and worship. Have fixed hours for prayer and Japa. Even during office hours feel that you are doing His worship Swami Chidananda Knowing Brahman is being Brahman. Knowing Reality is being Reality. Thought and Reality coalesce and become Absolute Being. - Swami Krishnananda Chant the Maha Mantra Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare BE HAPPY. https://sekhar789.blogspot.com/2016/12/chanting-jaya-ganeshasivananda-bhajan9.html

Increase the duration by gradual practice. Perform your daily routine of religious observances and worship, if any. Write your favourite Name of the Lord such as Om, Sri Ram, Jesus, Om Namah Sivaya— in your note book for 10 to 30xminutes. Sing the glory of God, prayers, hymns, etc., for half to one hour at night, with family and friends. Make annual resolves on the above lines. Regularity, tenacity and fixity are essential.

PSYCHIC CULTURE

Swami Sivananda

Study one chapter or 10 to 25 verses from your religious book daily. Attend religious meetings, hear the discourses of saints at every opportunity. Organize such functions on Sundays or holidays. Visit a temple or place of worship once a week and arrange to hold religious meetings or discourses there. Spend holidays and live in the company of saints, or practise spiritual practices at holy places in seclusion.

Act, but let not action be a fetter. Act, but be free. Offer your action as worship of God. When every action is made an act of devotion, then quickly the living presence is felt within. - Swami Sivananda The more you spend your energy in elevating and serving others, the more Divine energy will flow to you. Think positively. You grow into the likeness of the thought picture which you hold on to with sincerity and persistence. Contemplate upon your ideal into which you wish to grow. This forms part of daily Spiritual life. Seek the Immortal Self. Aspire for Bliss Eternal. Strive to find Reality. He who strives, finds.
