diseases that puzzle not only to the theist but also to the atheist. The religions may be varied but anger and anxiety affect similarly to every man of every religion. Anger and anxiety follow man like his own reflection. Mother-in-law, Son-in-law, Husband, Wife, Father and Son, all are mutually worried about each-other for some or the other reason. Anxiety of mother and father begins with the birth of their child. When a child grows a little, parents begin getting puzzled about his school, when he begins going to school; they get worried about his studies; when he begins studying, the anxiety of exams occurs and when the exams are over, the burden of result makes them puzzled. After all this, when a child grows little elder, the anxiety begins of what subjects are to be opted and in which college should he be admitted. If he gets subject and college of his choice, then there is the anxiety of fee and scholarship. When the college education is over, there is an anxiety of career, job and service. If service is available, anxiety of marriage begins and if marriage takes place happily then comes the turn of anxiety for children. I mean to say that the cycle of anxiety and worries goes on continuously round o'clock. If a step is advanced on the road, there is an anxiety of getting scooter, car etc. The net of anxiety becomes automatically larger. The children will serve in their old age or not and what will there be after death: - the hell or the heaven? The anxiety of all these things goes on constantly.
If you are the victim of anger and anxiety then the company of your relations i.e. husband or wife etc. will prove no fruitful but you will be facing the company of anger and anxiety in real. You yourself have a look into you and examine yourself how the anxiety puzzles you. The first harmful effect of anxiety occurs to the mind and health of man. The mind of man is the greatest capital of him. But with the growth of worries, increases tension and the mind
