Anger - The Lack of Understanding

Early humans' survival depended on aggression and anxiety, but teachings like the golden rule and the rule to love one another have guided humanity towards peace and harmony. Overcoming anger with love and understanding fosters a more peaceful world.

Summary

Anger is like poison to the spirit. It is a harmful emotion that can cause great damage to ourselves and others. When we become angry, it is like throwing a stone into a hornet's nest – it stirs up trouble and creates chaos. Anxiety and fear were common among our early ancestors. These feelings helped them survive and adapt to their environment. However, excessive anxiety can be harmful, leading to anger and inhibiting our progress. It is important to find a balance and not let anger control us or cause harm to others. Anger is a sign of our spiritual nature losing control over our thoughts and actions. It shows a lack of love, self-respect, and self-control. Anger can harm our health, cloud our minds, and hinder our spiritual growth. Remembering the teachings of love and patience can help us overcome anger and find peace within ourselves. Our ancestors were quite aggressive and prone to war in the early days of humanity. Later, humanity was taught the golden rule – to treat others as they would like to be treated. When they lived by this code, they were able to avoid violent conflicts and valued peace and harmony. More recently, Jesus entreated us to love one another as he loved us, which is the highest love and tolerance the world has ever known. Let your heart be so dominated by love that your spirit guide will have little trouble in delivering you from the tendency to give vent to those outbursts of animal anger that are inconsistent with the status of divine sonship. Let us strive to control our anger and replace it with love and understanding. In so doing, we can create a more peaceful and loving world for ourselves and all future generations.
