Then
there
is
a
mental
poison
called
anger.
Avoid
it
as
you
would
a
venomous
snake.
It
has
indeed
been
said
by
scientists
that
the
venom
of
the
snake
is
developed
through
anger,
induced
by
impure
circulation,
for
in
reptiles
the
pure
arterial
blood
mixes
in
the
imperfectly
formed
heart
with
the
impure
venous
blood.
Scientists
have
also
stated
that
anger
produces
a
poison
in
the
perspiration
that
emanates
from
the
human
body.
This
may
or
may
not
be
true,
but
there
is
no
question,
however,
about
anger
being
a
mental
poison.
It
represents
a
tremendous
waste
of
nervous
energy.
To
be
sure,
there
may
be
occasions
when
anger
is
justified,
when
it
is
actually
desirable,
but
such
occasions
are
rare.
Learn
to
master
such
emotions.
Get
control
of
your
feelings
and
mental
states.
Avoid
useless
anger
definitely
and
finally.
It
usually
indicates
a
lack
of
mental
control,
and
should
be
recognized
as
a
destructive
force
to
be
carefully
avoided.
Hate
is,
to
a
certain
extent,
synonymous
with
anger.
One
may
call
it
anger
in
a
chronic
form.
Hate
and
the
personal
enmities
associated
with
it
develop
emotions
and
characteristics
that
unquestionably
have
a
destructive
influence.
Why
hate
anybody?
Why
waste
your
nervous
energies
by
trying
to
"get
even"
with
a
fancied
enemy?
A
tremendous
amount
of
human
energy
is
wasted
in
this
manner.
You
may
be
impressed
with
the
idea
that
someone
has
wronged
you.
You
lie
awake
at
night
forming
plans
for
"getting
even."
Every
mental
effort
spent
in
this
direction
is
not
only
destructive
to
body,
mind
and
character,
but
it
represents
a
waste
of
nervous
energy.
One's
life
should
be
so
filled
with
useful
activities
that
no
time
will
be
left
for
a
waste
of
this
sort.
Show
me
a
man
who
spends
his
time
and
efforts
trying
to
"get
even"
with
his
supposed
enemies,
and
I
will
show
you
a
shining
example
of
failure.
No
man
can
succeed
who
wastes
his
nervous
forces
in
this
manner.
