I was suppressing anger my whole life until my therapist asked me if I ever get angry and I said 'Not really. I am a kind person'. I will remember the expression of her face till the rest of my life😂 we started working on this issue and turned out it was one of the main causes of my problems. Now, at 24, I learn how to feel anger and not be afraid to let someone know they made me angry. Feels like I'd been living my life defenseless 😢

[@Mantras-and-Mystics]

Yes. It's annoying, often debilitating. it's deemed unacceptable to express anger - even in a healthy way. My thoughts on this are that people are so afraid of their own anger, that they try and shut it down in others. Whereas, if it were okay to at least express our true feelings (like when our boundaries have been crossed) then anger would not become this huge issue everyone makes it out to be. If you provoke or tease an animal, we're not surprised if it gets annoyed, then starts lashing out. Animals don't have filters placed on them. Unfortunately for us, we somehow have to operate around huge energy blockages placed on us by society - and that we maintain because we fear for our survival.

[@fluentinoverthinking]

@@Mantras-and-Mystics , this is so true. I like you analogy with animals. Dogs (if they are mentally stable) always growl before biting. I think humans should understand that growling is okay.

[@Rushexe]

Sounds similar to the advice my therapist gave me. The goal is not to try and never be angry, that's impossible. Instead, it's to know how to manage it, control it, defuse it, etc. When there's a river in our way, we can't just wish the water out of existence, but we can build a dam.

[@johnnyearp52]

​@@fluentinoverthinkingIt is even ok to bite if the situation requires it!

[@Dowlphin]

Emotional suppression is pretty much the 'game of the devil', so to speak, because it is done out of fear of punishment by society for inconveniencing others with portrayal of what they are too afraid to do. Emotion has a special relation with absolute truth since there is no right or wrong about the phenomenon itself, and expressing anger is more honorable than not doing it, the latter being a deception and self-deception. As someone who loves to serve the truth, I take little issue with someone speaking angrily towards me but much issue if someone speaks deceptively to me. Expression anger, in our society and its norms, is often an expression of courage. But there is also portrayed, acted anger, deliberately chosen from servitude to the lie and lust for its power. It is actually more like aggression than real anger emotion, so it can be easy to recognize.

[@Red88Rex]

I don’t consider myself an angry person, im very mellow. However, i was raised by two narcissistic, neglectful, awful excuses for parents. They have caused me lifelong mental issues from the trauma. Whats important here is I was able to go no contact with both of them as an adult. It was the hardest thing I ever did, but it gave me the space to stop the bleeding and dissect what I’d been through and what it had done to my brain. While there’s a lot of pressure and temptation to reunite with my mother, I cannot do it. And it’s that anger that makes me strong enough to hold onto the NC. I was failed by both of them and I struggle every single day of my life because of their neglect and abuse. They don’t deserve a relationship with me. I actually hate them, and it is what makes sure I do not make the mistake of letting them in again. It lights a fire under my ass to make damn sure I take care of myself and support myself fully. I’d rather die on the streets than ever ask them for help. I do what I need to do.

[@punkmoose3962]

Thank you for this video! This is a topic I have felt conflicted on for a while but think I'm settled on Seneca's view now. I rarely feel anger but know that in cases where "righteous anger" may be considered warranted, anger can only muddy the proper course of action. If you can spell out why something is wrong and what needs to be done to remedy it, that is what needs to be done; no more, no less. Acting on anger can only divert the proper reasoned course of action.

[@becomingdauntless8821]

I've been a Christian for over 15 years and anger is something I've struggled with even to this day. Over the years, I have improved with managing this emotion and I've had to learn the hard way because it has costed me at certain points in life. One thing I believe and have learnt is that its okay to feel angry whatever the reason but you don't always have to act on it and yes you shouldn't linger there as it actually affects your mental, spiritual and physical health. When you feel angry, you will always have a choice as to how to 'react' and that's where virtues like self control and patience play their part otherwise you end up saying/doing something you might regret. Even if I get angry and show my temper which happens maybe every now and then, I accept where I went wrong and try to learn from it. Its a process for everyone I believe.

[@joannaedwards6325]

You make very good points. Patience is important.

[@Dowlphin]

But regret might be of two types: 1) Really hurting someone innocent. 2) Receiving petty punishment for expressing instead of suppressing like the norm. The second type is a kind of challenge to a system to learn to accept negative emotion so that people can learn to transform it, lest nothing good comes into the system from outside. It comes back to anger possibly being a neutral tool and its merit being determined by what quality of virtue motivates it.

[@sneakerbabeful]

​@@Dowlphin I am slowly learning that it's ok to say "I feel angry when ..." in a calm voice, without cursing or insults. However, many people react negatively even when anger is expressed calmly.

[@Dowlphin]

@@sneakerbabeful That means you are bringing something out in them that they have so little control over that a mere mention makes it boil up. Alternatively they have very much control over it and deliberately wield it. Pain suppression is one thing, but whether someone got beaten into it or wears it proudly as a lifestyle makes a significant difference at least for how much hope is there for positive change in them. There is a document I cannot mention here that deals with the harm done by society's rampant emotional invalidation, part of which is the by now infamous "positive thinking" ideology.

[@Dowlphin]

@@SirJonHarringtonBlumpkinThe8th Yep, thought shapes language and language shapes thought.

[@DasosBeats]

I think that anger itself is a part of being human that can't be neglected. But there's still a huge difference between just feeling the emotion of anger and acting out on it and or indulging in it. I have the feeling that always suppressing anger over a long period of time will lead to an accumulation that will sooner or later explode in an extreme and uncontrolled way. So what I think is best is to let the emotion (in this case anger) happen when it arises whilst not acting out on it but also not trying to suppress it.

[@OzzyMcBean]

I'm not too sure. I've repressed a lot of anger for many years and that's helped me to control when, and how much I act on it. I don't think I ever act out of incontrollable anger or wrath. I do choose to employ levels of controlled aggression if I deem it beneficial to the situation, normally towards others who I imagine will understand that language or respond more preferably to aggression than to addressing my issues constructively.

[@joeker6220]

Disagree If you feel like its accumulated then find another way to release it. Exercise, art, meditation etc

[@OzzyMcBean]

Fyt me.

[@DasosBeats]

@@joeker6220 that's exactly what I meant by just feeling it without acting on it. My way of doing it is going to the gym and just let the anger flow without putting "fuel" into it. Just letting it go without interacting in it.

[@DasosBeats]

@@OzzyMcBean i do get what you mean but our points aren't that far away from each other actually. (At least I think so) I don't mean when you're angry to just let it out externally. My point was more of a internal way to deal with anger. So basically you are suppressing it "externally" because you're not showing it to the outside in the form of aggression to others or shouting, but rather just feeling the emotion inside of yourself until its gone without putting more fuel into it and growing the flame so to speak.

[@brewberry3894]

Too many times was i sad when someone broke my heart, when i should have been angry. If someone disrespects you you should definitely tell them and set boundaries. Even if that means ending a relationship.

[@JohnJJSchmidt]

So what was Cain to do about the anger (I saw something that said he was "distressed" but we'll use anger) he felt about god rejecting his offering? It wasn't like God told him "it wasn't enough" or "the grain can be better, up your skills." It was just flat rejected. What level of courage did he need to attain to "do something about it"? Finding the courage to just let go is denying that the initial pain is valid or a natural response. Especially when the one presenting the challenge is god and supposedly the arbiter of justice and fairness.

[@7856841]

@@JohnJJSchmidt I think it illustrates that anger can manifest in two ways, revenge or repentance leading to progress. Revenge representing the lack of courage needed to repent and rebuild.

The antagonist character "Majin Kaioh" from Hokuto No Ken 2 can be a great example how anger can be both useful & destructive at the same time. The father & son with hammering nails into wood example you gave, fits pefectly with him. Kaioh on the other hand, held onto his anger and pinned down every nail in the woods in a designed manner so it doesn't look ugly. Built himself up, gained so much power so that he could shape the world in his own image, became the strongest user of Anryu Tenha, and arguably the strongest character ever in HnK universe. But at the end, his anger turned into wrath out of sheer hatred, and he killed his own sister, cut ties with his blood brothers, and tried to kill his own brother-in-arms just for his own satisfaction. It was as if his wood was filled so much with nails that only the iron was visible and not a single bit of the wood. In the end, he found himself regretting what he did, shedding tears as he let go of his demonic tendencies, and returned to humility. But his wooden board was filled with nails so much so that it couldn't be recognizable or redeemable anymore, so he ended his own life.

Lol. Nice metaphor

[@Dowlphin]

People should just consider that grief is a negative emotion but after a good cry one feels relieved, unburdened, refreshed, and we should not only cultivate that awareness but also transfer it to other negative emotions. Not venting anger leads to liver problems, among other things. It accumulates in the body as muscle tensions, quite easily understandable as the muscle actions taken in a fit of anger but remaining in the body, unexpressed. The mind's intention still drives the experience, but the physical release is blocked.

[@MattAngiono]

@Dowlphin there's actually evidence to suggest that "venting" anger makes it worse. We think we are making it better but really we are solidifying the emotion in our psyche. Better to just rewire your brain to deal with anger differently in the first place. If you understand the process, this is absolutely possible. Once you know that it has a negative effect, you can predispose yourself to rarely if ever get angry at all. I'm speaking from experience....

[@Dowlphin]

@@MattAngiono Of course one can develop towards less anger tendency, but as long as the personality entertains it, it should not be suppressed. And it might not be right for the situation to not express anger when there are people who simply don't respond to anything else to abandon their wicked ways. If you then try to condition away from an anger tendency, there is a risk of deluding yourself, i.e. intellectualized anger suppression instead of forced anger suppression.

[@MattAngiono]

@Dowlphin it's not suppression if you don't actually get angry anymore. Plus, I'm going off of evidence from actual psychology studies that show that acting out on your anger amplifies it. Anger doesn't solve anything effectively. I learned this early on in martial arts, because people often think you get some boost from the rage. In reality, you become less aware of your surroundings and less likely to effectively act in a conflict. You don't have to agree, but when there's enough evidence to swing entire studies towards this conclusion, you should at least consider that you may have a flawed model about negative emotions. I think the core of that comes from the concept that you must "suppress" them. You can work through negative emotions without suppressing them and without acting upon them. Part of this is just realizing that emotions aren't always rational. Wait 5 minutes and they often change. If not, wait a few more, do a practice that benefits you, like exercise or playing music, and see what happens. I use it all the time when things aren't ideal. These emotions don't return with a fury, they just become forgotten relics of my past. And I dealt with VERY SERIOUS depression and anger issues at various points in my young life

[@Dowlphin]

@@joannaedwards6325 At least part of the affliction now could be from your anger state depleting certain healthy nutrients, or worsening your diet towards deficiency. Another part might be tensions in the body impairing healthy flow of resources. We can work on healing outselves and thereby the system in general from several angles and should not be picky. There are various good sources for learning what might be the causes of arthritis and how to heal it. One relatively useful source would be the YT channel "Dr. Eric Berg DC". The affliction can be a reminder to choose better ways in the future, but once the message has been integrated, you should resolve the whole anger complex by healing 'the scars'. Because negative motivation doesn't transcend the status quo. At some point you can make small attempts at apologies or reconciliation, little enough to not risk another failure. Such will succeed with certainty if you have found the ideal path.

Anger can be productive and used positive, but most of the time it damages people and makes them ugly.

[@Lunay08]

Anger is a healthy emotion, just as all the others are. Sometimes, it's there to tell you when your boundaries are being crossed. Unfortunately, we tend to let anger control us most of the time, which is why it's seen as negative. What I try to do now a days when I get angry, is explore what my anger has stemmed from. I don't really get angry a lot thankfully, but when I do, it's pretty intense, but I still am able to control it and not let it affect anyone else. Exploring why something makes you angry helps you come up with ways to work around it. I used to be INCREDIBLY angry when my plans changed. It got me into a huge argument with my partner. I had to look more into that and with practice, I no longer get as angry as I used to. Now, I just see it as a new adventure. Granted, my feelings of annoyance still arise, but I'm able to talk myself out of them and continue on having a fun time with whoever I'm with. Always ask yourself "What is this trying to reach me?" when anger arises. Sometimes, our emotions are just trying to teach us lessons that we have no yet learned. Stay humble friends ♥

Anger is necessary at times and I'd argue that we've beat into people this idea that showing anger in any capacity is wrong and inappropriate.

I agree, every emotion or whatever is part of the balancing act and you cannot just completely ignore this side of yourself.

Right. And suppressed anger can cause depression. Also, constantly 'swallowing' anger leads, in some instances, to obesity. People over eat to avoid their strong emotions.....anger being one.

Amen to this, As someone who let the anger get the better of I like 4 times throughout my life I agree, Anger in itself is not wrong or bad, since we have a right to feel this way when faced with an Injustice, however it is only wrong if it repeats or leads to destructive behavior.

[@James_36]

I can’t say I agree in any way really - in most situations in life anger makes you look weak, easily manipulated and out of control. The only utility is if it is kill or be killed scenario. Are most people with anger issues using anger correctly on this basis? No, they are unleashing anger to destroy others because of various selfish desires or lack of achievement in most cases or simply not getting their way.

A downward spiral leads to wrath. Think of an event where you got angry. Like you stubbed your toe, hit your funny bone, or you broke something dear to you. You got angry, but it was controlled and rationalized. Then think of times when several things made you angry. When multiple factors fuel your anger is when wrath happens. When those things happen outside of your control that progressively make you more and more angry is a downward spiral.

[@zodiacfml]

neither right or wrong. anger is an emotion, like happiness or sadness. however, it is an emotion that needs to be controlled, managed, or conserved like energy. if you expend it too quickly or explosively, one would be resorting to violence or one would used all of the anger in one moment. Anger is necessary for doing difficult things but should be used for useful, good outcomes.

Even christianity should not elevate righteous anger to something most positive, though, but as merely relatively beneficial. Saintly action might accomplish the same or better results without feeling anger, and could even be defined as such. Anger then is a non-perfect, tricky to handle, acceptable mode of enacting justice, and it might also sometimes be necessary to be expressed in a deliberately portrayed way in order to have an effective impact on someone else who only responds to expression of such emotions. Here we could even use a Daoist view of virtue levels and say that righteousness (warning: misinterpretation potential due to the christian righteousness being based on the views of God) may express itself as wrath, justice may express itself as anger, kindness may express itself as peacefulness, ans I am unsure about integrity and Dao, but it may be very diverse in expression and hard to pin down. Also worth noting as a study example: I listened to all the lectures of *Bruno Gröning* that I could find, and in some of them he talked with a loud and assertive, strict voice, and some people perceived that as him being angry, but we could also consider that he chose that tone due to a perceived urgency of having the message sink in. Of course, in a way that is an expression of upset inner peace, possibly due to his nearing death, but there is still a difference between such a passionate alerting speech (comparable to some church sermons) and an angry rant. The former is like a warrior charging, the latter like a cornered wounded animal. 14::26 ...like believing the lies of crooked inciteful media and in consequence driving humankind towards world war 3. - My thesis is that deviation from seeing truth itself is the emotion of fear having gotten out of control, so even when someone calmly chooses to believe a lie despite sufficient information available to recognize it, this is deeply rooted fear guiding those actions. People disgracing the truth are able to hide their moral rot because they easily blend in with the norm. - If you challenge every lie told, you can drive people furious, because you set out to expose the full extent of the empire of lies instead of just the little bones thrown to the dogs/cynics to keep them busy. 15:03 Burning Rome, Reichstagsbrand, 9/11 ... Same ancient methods working as well today as back then, and yet without a huge effort to keep awareness of such tactics alive, we forget and become vulnerable. It is like pathogens who try to convert the body's milieu to suit them. Liars not only fight against truth spoken, they also work to make people ignorant of how to spot lies. 18:25 Many people with a closed heart might resort to pretending / telling themselves to be stoics. That then leads to head smart without heart smart and thus abandonment of truth in the most rigid and deluded way, because cherished as good way of life. This conveys that philosophy can turn into ignorant pretending, that nothing can sway a conscious choice, that the will reigns supreme. While fake stoicists think absence of anger protects against delusion, fake aristotelans think their anger is always the righteous type. I.e. there is no idiot-proofing. At the core the teaching has to be competent thorough instruction and guidance about how not to be driven by fear. When that root is healed, then everything down the line easily heals itself.

[@rainynight02]

An example of wrath is Saul? Saul was literally a victim. "And I (god) sent an evil spirit upon him (Saul) to enrage him and make him try to kill David." That's the gist of it and this happened multiple times. That wasn't wrath, that was another (evil) being possessing you.

Fantastic work. I agree with the stoics on anger. There's no justification for anger and there shouldn't be. As you previously mentioned in a video, anger is a desire to repay suffering and can manifest itself in an outward or a repressed manner. In any case, it is a poison that affects the one that has held to anger. I was very angry yesterday, it had been a long time since I got that angry. But I was able to let go of much of that anger by remembering two things. 1. We have no enemies: As human beings we are meant for companionship and to help one another and not to tear each one down. 2. The triviality of what I was angry about, the truth of the matter is that I could have made a concession because what we had disagreed about was not challenging my principles. Yes, it bothered me, but the cost was not definitely worth it. So, I beseech all my brothers and sisters, never let anger get the best of you. We are best when we are at peace of mind, that's when our best work comes out whether in jobs, relationships or etc. Live long and prosper.

[@rawls101]

I feel it important to point out that the scriptures often refer to "The Wrath of God". Wrath is simply "Anger in Action". Anger is mostly internal. Wrath is external. They are not separate principles, but higher and lower levels on the same pole. Similar to Happy & Joy. Separating Anger and Wrath into "Sinful & Not Sinful" I think is misleading. If God, being holy, can have and act upon both Anger and Wrath, then that means there must be a deeper motivation for Acting upon them. Therefor, if it is not sinful for God to have anger & wrath, then one must conclude that it is our own mortal, fallen, imperfect, carnal natures that turns the ability of responding to, and acting upon "righteous anger" into a sinful response. I see Wrath more of the "That's it! Enough is enough!" action that comes from increased Anger. This can either come from a holy, righteous state of being, such as from God who may have given a people multiple opportunities to repent but they aren't listening, or it can come from an uncontrolled, carnal mind which leads to prideful, unrighteous destruction, such as from us. As mentioned in the video, when based on mercy & justice, when it is a force for "good", anger (and I would add wrath) is not sinful. "Righteous anger should be used sparingly, and unrighteous anger should be avoided." I liked that part. Great video!

Unlike the other sins/failings, anger/wrath can potentially be channeled for change. "Before creation, comes destruction". Morality is purely subjective, so anything that that drives change despite the consequences is ultimately proof of our existence and evolution, despite the cycles of failure we find ourselves in. If we break enough cycles via anger/wrath, we should eventually create a cycle everyone succeeds in.

[@Gielderst]

In our modern days of living. It's impossible not to get angry and furious. Simply because everything has it's limit. I was confronted by 3 individuals one day last month. After i came home from work. And they went on at me about how i was driving dangerously, while i was simply changing parking spots quickly. To park closest to my place. I told them i was tired and to leave me alone. Cause driving is my job and don't have time for arguments. But one of the 3 was bigger than me and asked me if i wanted a beating. And then i got angry and told em go on. Then out of the blue he knocked me down to the ground right infront of my Ap Building Entrance. But the other 2 held him back from continuing with his assault on me. After i got up. I was raging furious. And said told them that i'm gonna show the m who they're messing with. So i quickly went inside place and ran out back again with a Katana Sword i have. And began screaming at the guy who knocked me down to the ground that i was going to cut his head off and kill him there. But while i was approching him out of rage with my sword thankfully 1 of the other 2 put his hand on my chest. And that made me stop my advance towards the one who knocked me down. And after that i went back home. And the following month i was being chased and harrased by these thugs who all know eachother while i don't even know who they are. And in the end i had to pay an extortion to be left alone. Because i was targeted for harassing and if i didn't pay the extortion, then i won't be left alone. All because of a bunch of toxic people. For no reason. The worst was that they're from the same Ap building i live in but from a different entrance to it. Complete insanity. They provoked my Anger and Rage. I would've never reacted the way i did if I wasn't provoked. There's also a witness who saw the guy who knocked me down to the ground initially. Thankfully it's over for now after i payed the thugs the extortion

[@Sheepheadz]

if i was you i would do the deed i think something similiar is currently happening to me and honestly i think it would be morally good to stop people like this forever i will never back down.

[@Gielderst]

@Sheepheadz To be honest i'm glad that other guy stopped me while i was advancing with my Sword in hand. Cause if i had killed that thug there on the spot for assaulting me. I would've been in prison now. Just for murdering some piece of shit subhuman out of Justified Rage from my side. So i'm glad i didn't do it. And of course, i'd never want to harm anyone. But Anger, Fury and Rage can make anyone kill for real. Newton's law " Every action has an equal opposite reaction " and that applies to human behavior. Thanks for reading my true story. I felt like this video was the right place to share my awful experience. God bless the good people still out there 🙏 as few as they may seem to be nowadays.

The distinction here becomes somewhat semantic, but Theological ethics would probably argue for the virtue/amorality in the emotion itself, while both Stoics and Buddhist would presumably argue that it is an emotion that arises from personally identifying with externalities, which is the major source of suffering and harm because it is a faulty view of reality. As far as I understand these philosophies, Theological ethics seem to reflect that the only good that can be attributed to anger is as the motivating driving force to righteous action. While Stoic and Buddhist precepts attribute the motivating driving force behind similar righteous action to other faculties. In other words, Stoics and Buddhists would concede that there is room for some actions of righteous anger (e.g. raising your voice to convey the seriousness of a situation) as long as it isn't fueled by the emotion of anger.

[@Dowlphin]

But is this a step that abets a societal norm of anger suppression? How do you respond to people directing anger towards you?

[@MattAngiono]

@Dowlphin it's not about suppressing the anger because that has its own toxic effect on you. It's more about deciding that anger doesn't serve you and creating new mental pathways for situations that would otherwise have you angry. Replace it with the proper emotions for the unfortunate circumstances. The fact that what makes people angry is different for everyone shows there's obviously other ways to respond. Martial arts often teaches some of this. Just be like a peaceful monk when others are angry. If you are clear in your mind, you can operate on a whole other level. I'm not saying that's always easy, but it does work!

So, Cain can bust his butt in service to god and have his offering rejected without reason but then his brother can make a similar offering and be accepted but this is not righteous anger? A human being human and being upset at rejection WITHOUT A REASON. If a reason is given, like in this context, say Cain was holding back and not giving as much as he could or being dishonest and hoarding for himself, then god rejects the offering and tells him why, Cain then has something to reflect on and morally improve. No reason allows him to inject his own reasoning which can lead to wrath. Acting like rejection is not a natural thing to be upset about is dumb and determining whether something is righteous anger or not assumes some absolute moral authority. Also dumb.

Rudiment of grudge and heart’s peavy. Aliment to kedge our vainglory. The only boon, its ephemeral clutch, Hatching us to a demonic apery. Wrath, the battle where words are weapons, Rearing our vengeance with gore. Aftermath bestow us, a rueful eagre To our soulful haven; Heaping us, the impiety of Heaven. Wrath, the self-injecting poison for Renege of temporisers. And giving a wistful smile To those sycophants filled with bile, Hushing us up, for a baneful exile. Wrath, Oh! the soul’s woe for Repugnant repudiation and remorse. Alas! It never neglects evermore friends, Tampering their memories and faith. Hew them, they sprout as two gorse. Wrath, the antipode of amity, which Resents our benign soul. An aumbry of crude impulse has Trumped us up, like a ghoul. However, a revival of innate zeal.” -irenic (2018) This video made me, bring back my old poem which I wrote on wrath for a competition. SUMMARY: ‘Wrath’ is an Acrostic type of poem, in which the first letter of each line spells out a word or a message. Every stanzas define, wrath in a unique way. The below are the meaning of each stanza; I. Wrath is a sin born in hell. It is the rage (extreme anger) of a crestfallen (disappointed) human. It is a feral (untamed) expression to a squall (storm). The mask of our suppressed fear, which harping (dwell/ think) us, as a poisonous smear(slander/ damage to reputation) II. Wrath has two best friends, Pride (ego) and Envy (jealousy). It’s like when one sin gets turned on, automatically others join the party. It’s the rudiment (basis) of grudge and the heart’s peavy (lumberman’s sharp lever, to handle wood). Wrath acts an aliment (nourishment) to kedge (a small anchor, used as a support to pull a boat) our vainglory (excessive pride). The only boon (advantage) is its ephemeral (temporary) clutch on us and hatching (creating) us to perform a demonic apery (mimicry/imitation). III. Wrath is the battle, where the words are used as weapons, making us to rear (breed) our vengeance (revenge) with gore (bloodshed). The aftermath of this battle bestow (give) us, a rueful (regretful) eagre (giant sea wave) to our soulful (emotional) haven (refuge; here means, our body) and heaping (piling) us with the impiety (sins) of Heaven. IV. Wrath is the self-injecting poison for the renege (revoke one’s promise) of the temporisers (people who evade decisions to gain time or who beat around the bush). It makes us to give a wistful (vague) smile to those sycophants (people who tries to gain advantage over us) filled with bile (bitterness) and hushing us up (silently pushing us) for a baneful exile (harmful banishment; it means deserted mental torment which we feel inside our body, cause by wrath). V. Wrath, the soul’s woe (suffering) for repugnant (unacceptable) repudiation (rejection from others) and remorse (deep guilt). And wrath never neglects evermore (eternal) friends, it tampers (interfere) their memories and faith. If you hew (cut) them, i.e. friends; they sprout as two gorse (thorny bush). VI. Wrath is the antipode (opposite) of amity (friendship), which resents (envies/dislikes) our benign (kind) soul. Wrath is an aumbry (cupboard) of crude impulse (unrefined manner of action) which has trumped us up (falsely accused us) like a ghoul (a ghost). However, Wrath is a revival (refreshment) of innate zeal (inborn peace) of our body. OVERALL MESSAGE FROM THE POEM: 1. Wrath, unleashes our animalistic senses, which we hide deep inside our soul. It’s innate, can’t be changed, but can be controlled. 2. Buddha says, ‘You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger’. Wrath wraps and weighs down our soul and makes us commit vengeance. 3. Expectation and hope from others, are the two main reason for wrath. So expect less from others and be more content with yourself. 4. Happiness is the key to peace; sadness is the key to sin! 5. Live a euphoric life and spread love and positivity!
