My dear friends,
Everyone wants to contain and control anger. Anger is the most dangerous emotion one fears. The attached PPT explains how one can use this as a positive weapon for success in life. I am practicing this and remain successful. Why not you.

I do personality profiling and often have to convince some people from anger-averse cultures that feeling angry is a legitimate emotional response. Learning to express and receive anger appropriately is necessary in true multinational companies.

Wonderful article. However, if a section on how to exercise controlled anger without losing one's senses were added, it would be appreciated. This addition would likely enable a person to be in command.

Programming the subconscious mind after self-introspection is a simple and effective technique. Some of these techniques are best practiced in a workshop setting and can be challenging to articulate in writing. Thank you for your kind appreciation.

Wow, Bhaskar, I admire your analogy—it's simple and very appealing. With your permission, I think I can use this in my Training Program (no honorarium, please ). Thank you for your tips. Keep in touch, my friend.

I will be more careful in the future, Murali. Before uploading, I should have corrected the mistakes which I failed to do. That's why the Post Script in my mail. I also, many times, think the way you do when I see such silly mistakes in any presentation. Thanks for your comments made in my interest.

Dear Ganesh,
Always make mistakes, but ensure that you are making a new mistake every time. Learn from your previous mistakes, and one day you will become a perfectionist.
Mistakes are made only by working individuals. An idle person cannot commit any mistakes.

Good Morning Ramn Ji,
Very educative article. Anger is one of the Six Vikars (i.e., Shadripus viz. Kaam, Krodh, Maad, Matsar, Lobha, Ahankar) which a human being is expected to control. Thank you for your guidance on how to use it to have positive effects.

Dear Sir,
Thank you for the valuable presentation. Anger is an expression of spontaneous negative emotions. Being spontaneous, it will require very high and quick analytical skills to derive positive drive. A high level of maturity and positive thinking may be useful. When angry, we feel that the other person is somehow wrong or guilty. That perception needs to be changed with an analytical mind.
Take care,
Tunar

It was an excellent presentation and a thoughtful way of handling our negative weapon - anger. The best part was, "ANGER IS A TWIN-EDGED WEAPON, KNOW THE TECHNIQUE AND BE A SKILLED PERSON IN HANDLING THIS WEAPON TO YOUR ADVANTAGE." Really good and worth following.
Thanks and Regards.

Appreciate your thought, Bhaskar. I would like to add to it. If you feel angry, close your eyes and try to concentrate on the past memories that were good to you, like your life journey. Imagine yourself as being capable of doing anything you wish. Your temper will surely calm down, and you can cheer up again.

No Basker... what Deepali says is not a technique one should do in front of the person with whom we are angry. The first thing we should do is to just move away from the place/person.
Angry moments will get stuck for long in our memory to make one more scar in our subconscious. Deepali's technique is aimed at removing those bad memories and the resultant scar. This is an NLP Technique which we teach to others. Since the rays of anger will move 90 Deg. i.e. vertically the angry person is advised to lay down on the ground. Have you seen anyone laying on the ground and shouting too? The person will immediately get up and shout. These are all techniques.
But most of us do have the curse our Karna had in Mahabharath. That is, whatever technique we learn we forget at the time of exigency!! What to say. That is the reason why we are putting them into practice and even mock drills will be useful it seems :-)

Dear Vasant Nair,
It is a fairly decent effort by Ganesh to impress upon the need to appreciate and understand "Anger Management."
The presentation, both in terms of contents and language, could certainly have been much better and more qualitative.
Certain suggestions like "nervous breakdown is the cause for most of the diseases" (I wonder if this is medically correct. I am not too sure.)
All I am suggesting is that let us not make statements which we cannot validate.
Please also appreciate that I am NOT trying to belittle the relevance of the PPT circulated by Ganesh. It is a decent effort by him.
I will strongly recommend viewing Sister Shivani's VCD on Anger Management. It is very simple, easy to understand, and extremely meaningful. (Sister Shivani is a Brahm Kumari. She is seen almost daily in a TV Show called "Awakening With Brahmakumaris" on Astha Channel at 7 p.m. and at 10 p.m.
I will also suggest that let's not call ANGER a WEAPON...it somehow has a negative flavor to it. Can we call it a "TOOL" or an "INSTRUMENT"?
Best Wishes,
Vasant Nair

Thank you very much, Mr. Vasanth, for your frank and fair comments. "Nervous breakdown is the root cause of all diseases" is not my own statement. If my memory serves me well, I read it in one of the books of Osho. Somehow, a few mistakes did creep in which I also mentioned in my postscript of my email accompanying the PPT.
Vasantji, I can never ever be compared with Sister Shivani, who is a great and developed soul of a high order. Definitely, her approach to the issue would be much more appealing and potent than my presentation. I am extremely thankful for you bringing forth a few points in which I am lacking, which I will set right in my future presentations. I tried according to my knowledge and perception on this vital issue.
"Instrument" and "Tool" sound good - somehow it did not strike me. Thank you once again, Mr. Vasanth, for your constructive comments.

Some useful thoughts on "Stress Management". These thoughts have been mailed to me by Brahm Kumaris.
Vasant Nair
Stress Management
There are some false beliefs about stress that we have acquired:
"Stress is natural and has a positive part to play in our present day lives"
Truth: There is no such thing as 'positive stress'. By definition, stress is unnatural and unhealthy, and is therefore always a negative state.
Stress can be defined as a form of pain that comes to tell you there is something you need to change. Pain - any pain - is a messenger saying there is something you need to learn.
While some people rightly differentiate pain from suffering, where pain is physical and suffering is mental or emotional, but the term pain can be used for both.
If you put your hand in the fire, what do you experience? Pain. What do you learn? Not to do it again. You listened to the messenger, you learned and you changed. We can experience stress or pain at four levels - spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. When the messenger comes at the mental or emotional levels, with painful thoughts and negative feelings created by no one but ourselves, do we listen to the messenger? No we don't, we shoot the messenger down. Why? Because we have been taught to believe that some stress is necessary and good. 'They' told us it is normal, and we believed 'them'. And so we allow stress to develop within ourselves, not realizing we are creating our own slow death. One reason why the developed world's medical services are having such a tough time is because more and more of us are taking less and less responsibility for our own mental and emotional well-being. No one told us that a single negative thought could have a devastating effect on our immune system.
There are some false beliefs about stress that we have acquired:
"Stress is natural and has a positive part to play in our present day lives"
Truth: The second reason why we feel that stress is normal and don't learn and change is that we have grown to like a 'dose' of fear and a 'quick shot (injection)' of anger. Why? Because these emotions stimulate the production of certain addictive chemicals in our bodies. Many people cannot get through their day without their 'adrenaline dose'. So we go looking for bad situations, for confrontational people, for reasons to become angry, and if we don't get our dose then it feels like something is missing from our day.
To say that stress is normal, that a bit of stress is good, is a neat way of avoiding the inner work of self-responsibility and a sign of lazy thinking. We all learn to think lazily, it is largely an unfortunate consequence of our education (or lack of education) so most of us learn to believe that some stress is good. One thing is for sure, an increasing number of people are waking up to the reality that stress has no part in a fulfilling life and they are doing something about it at the level of their thoughts and feelings.
