Master Lu says, *“Anger is mankind’s biggest weakness. Do not find excuses to get angry. Anger only begets more anger. Taming our anger is the golden key to our physical and mental well-being.”*
On 16 April 2022, Guan Yin Citta, Singapore held an online English sharing session to delve into *uprooting the seeds of anger.*
Through a slew of interesting discourses, the facilitator helped us understand the perils of anger. Not only would *anger set our forests of virtues on fire, the negative implications we bring could bring harm to ourselves and others, and the damage could be irreversible. The message is crystal clear: It’s simply not worth it!*
When faced with an upsetting situation, Master Lu offered the following four guidelines:
1. *‘Patience for a moment, comfort for many years’* - learn to endure in all situations as it is the best way to stave off calamities. Endurance is not a sign of cowardice！
2. When someone hurts you, embrace the mindset of *“I have come to this world not to be troubled by vexations nor did I come here to suffer. I am here to liberate myself and to help others”* so that you can see through the true nature of things.
3. *Conduct yourself responsibly.* One who owns up to his mistakes is a person of integrity.
4. *Let go of your prejudice and focus on the good side of others.*
To break the cycle of anger, the participants were told *to let go and stop taking things personally simply because all occurrences are governed by the law of causality.* Other recommended practical methods were *leveraging the power of compassion and silence, and always giving others some wiggle room.*
