Is there any such person in all the three worlds, with whom we are authorised to be angry? If all are ours, there is no scope for anger. Indeed, in this creation of Karma.it is not proper to subject oneself to anger:-there is no person whom we can consider as subject to our being angry.

You may practise vows, religious obser. vances, rituals and austerities, but if there is no mental quietude all these are in vain.
