“At the end of his life Buddha said: “I am still searching for truth.” This statement could be made by countless thousands of scientists, philosophers, and religious leaders throughout all history.

“We get angry when others hurt us, both by what they say and what they do. We get angry when we don’t get our own way or our plans and dreams are frustrated.

Like a corrosive acid, this kind of anger eats away at our bodies and souls, yet we may not even be aware of its presence.”
