Uncontrolled anger is a sign of ignorance. It binds you karmically with people and events; and the effects are often carried to other lives as well, forcing you to attract similar events. Intense anger is like signing contracts with people so that they come back to you in other lifetimes as well!
As potent negative energy, anger causes much harm to others and creates bad karma for you. Also, the energy of anger attracts negative events, including accidents and bad luck.
Another important aspect is that intense anger triggers ‘anger energy’ that is dormant in people and provokes them to react aggressively, making things worse.
There is more power in gentleness and love. However, there are situations where you should not simply smile, but have to ‘show’ that you are angry and take proper action as well.
It is important to know how, when and where to apply spiritual teachings. Spirituality is not about smiling all the time and accepting everything. Some of the Avatars like Lord Rama and Lord Krishna were great warriors. So, you can be hard on people when it is necessary, and ‘show’ that you are angry, but do not get angry!
