As
only
evil
consequences
can
come
out
of
it,
Anger
is
best
avoided
in
respect
of
all.
Anger can be productive of evil only and is, therefore, best eschewed. Parimelalagar would explain the phrase 'Yaar maatum' as covering the three classes 'Valiyaar' (superiors) 'Opaar' (equals) & 'Meliyaar' (inferiors). Anger is a vice which is bad in itself, irrespective of other external circumstances of its origin and destination. It is also productive of further evil. That is why Seneca said 'If anger is not restrained it is frequently more hurtful than the injury which provoked it'. The Gita would say (16,21) that anger is one of the triple gates of hell-alongside with lust and greed. Milton too speaks of anger (ire) as one of the three besetting passions of Satan, together with envy and despair in Paradise Lost, Book IV.
A Biblical parallel to this idea is enshrined in the following lines:
'Anger
and
wrath,
these
also
are
abominations
and
the
sinful
man
will
possess
them'.
(Sirach
27:30)
'That
whosoever
is
angry
with
his
brother
without
a
cause
shall
be
in
danger
of
judgement.
Whosoever
shall
say
to
his
brother
Raca,
shall
be
in
danger
of
the
council;
but
whosoever
shall
say
'thou
fool'
shall
be
in
danger
of
hell
fire'.
(Matt.
5:22)
