Yeah I think for many people behind all that anger and hate is some pain and bad experiences.

A lot of people with an unstable childhood end up with a lot of anger built up.

Personally speaking I'm not someone who has much anger/krodh, I'm quite the opposite actually. 

Different people "process" pain differently. 

But I think it comes down to personality aswell, some people are just angry people! It's not necessarily the result of pain and hurt. 

Anger is probably the most damaging of the 5 chor, it spreads hate and destroys many people.

People who join hate groups normally have a lot of anger and hate, the group then becomes like a space where they can vent all that anger. 

Yeah, we as a community don't talk much about krodh or the complexity.

This is an example of Krodh from Lieutenant Dan in Forrest Gump. He was a fauji and he wanted shaheedi like his father and grand father but he lived but lost his legs in the Vietnam war and he was angry with Maharaj.

He was in a storm and his anger came out:

 

But he had to submit to Maharaj's hukam and he found Sukh:

Modern Science talks about emotional stress and how it impacts the nervous system. 

You have sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.

Anger/Krodh is an emotional stress that maybe has a short term function but can cause health problems if it is prolonged. 

Now psychologists talk about meditation as an aid to calm your nervous system and to help manage stress?

What do you think Gurbani does? What does naam simran do?

It helps to calm your nervous system, it helps to manage stress.

Gurbani not only helps you spiritually but also mentally and physically too.

We've only begun to scratch the surface.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
