"Why We Shout In Anger"
A Hindu saint who was visiting
river Ganges to take bath found
a group of family members on
the banks, shouting in anger at
each other. He turned to his
disciples smiled'n asked.
'Why do people shout in anger
shout at each other?'
Disciples thought for a while,
one of them said,'Because we
lose our calm, we shout.'
'But, why should you shout when
the other person is just next to
you? You can as well tell him
what you have to say in a soft
manner.'asked the saint
Disciples gave some other
answers but none satisfied the
other disciples.
Finally the saint explained, .
'When two people are angry at
each other, their hearts distance
a lot. To cover that distance they
must shout to be able to hear
each other. The angrier they are,
the stronger they will have to
shout to hear each other to
cover that great distance.
What happens when two people
fall in love? They don't shout at
each other but talk softly,
Because their hearts are very
close. The distance between
them is either nonexistent or
very small...'
The saint continued,'When they
love each other even more, what
happens? They do not speak,
only whisper'n they get even
closer to each other in their
love. Finally they even need not
whisper, they only look at each
other'n that's all. That is how
close two people are when they
love each other.'
He looked at his disciples and
said.
'So when you argue do not let
your hearts get distant, Do not
say words that distance each
other more, Or else there will
come a day when the distance is
so great that you will not find
the path to return.'
