It is also necessary to develop feelings and thoughts that are comfortable us and others. For example if one gets angry, it will neither make that person nor anybody else happy. It would only cause discomfort. In order to change anger into mercy, it is necessary to develop one’s Inner Strength which is of different qualities like love, peace happiness, tolerance and patience.
If there’s love, there won’t be ‘hatred. If we can develop patience then there is no need to get upset or worry over anything. When one gets angry he/she would try to justify it. Isn’t it better to develop one’s inner strength, so that he/she can lead a calm and peaceful life always?
Spirituality is the consciousness which helps one to understand who he/she is knowledge of me and the knowledge of the Supreme Being.
