【The Gift of Anger】
【The Gift of Anger】
Once upon a time, Buddha was sitting under a big tree, quietly meditating.
The air was calm, and everything around him was peaceful.
Suddenly, an angry man appeared.
He was shouting at Buddha, "You're a fraud!
You know nothing! "
But Buddha stayed calm. He didn't say a word.
Instead, he smiled gently.
The angry man scratches his head, looking confused.
And then Buddha said, "If someone gives you a gift, but you don't accept it, who does the gift belong to?"
"Hmm, it
still belongs to the person who brought it."
The angry man's expression softens as he starts to understand.
"Exactly. In the same way, if I don't accept your anger, it stays with you."
The man was surprised. He thought about Buddha's words and realized his anger wasn't hurting anyone but himself.
He bowed to Buddha and walked away, feeling calm and happy.
So the next time someone is angry at you, remember Buddha's lesson.
Stay calm and
don't accept the gift of anger.
