“I lose my temper,but it’s all over in a minute,”said the student.
“So is the hydrogen bomb,”
I replied.“But think of the damage 
it produces!”

A Zen student came to Bankei and complained: "Master, I have an ungovernable temper. How can I cure it?"
"You have something very strange," replied Bankei. "Let me see what you have."
"Just now I cannot show it to you" replied the other.
"When can you show it to me?" asked Bankei
"It arises unexpectedly," replied the student.
"Then," concluded Bankei, "it must not be your own true nature. If it were, you could show it to me any time. When you were born, you did not have it, and your parents did not give it to you. Think that over."

“Temper is a funny thing;it spoils children,ruins adults and strengthens steel !!!”
P.S: What if,we could always be our authentic selves; choosing to live mindfully in accordance with our “own true nature???”
We do not feel balanced/calm/
caring/loving/grateful/happy/ compassionate and angry at the same time.
As someone wisely said,“ANGER is one letter short of  DANGER !!”
It is good to remember temper is good only for steel !!!!!!!!!Namaste,
Bhagya

accept it…………………………..
