Is anger a sign of defeat ?

i dont think anger is a sign of defeat, anger is a sign that we human beans, and anger is a sign that you´re no perfect, and if you get anger a lot take a look at yourself and analize if that things that makes you anger really should make it, or if just your current situation that you´re going through that is making you anger about everything.... i hope i could help. have a nice day

It depends. Sometimes you have to show anger in order to clearly drive a point.

It doesn't necessarily mean DEFEAT. Anger is a sign of losing control.

Anger is part of human's emotion. Therefore, it is normal to be angry. It's like the other feelings like happy, sad, disappointed, etc. When you are offended, or hurt, you wanted to get even or hurt also your opponent - this is what you feel when you get angry - to take revenge. So I would say that being angry is not at all a sign of defeat. Well, it depends on the situation but anger is a natural reaction of our body. :)

No, anger is not a sign of defeat. It is one of the natural responses to frustration. If you feel frustrated, it's okay to be angry. You have no idea what will happen if you keep all those feeling inside you. KABOOM! Got it!

Yes, because your stressed. And just like other people fake your feelings and let all the things to be done and happened as a numb.

Sometime you feel angry because you are beaten, but sometimes you angry because you win but you still not contented to what you have done. I mean for you, still it's not enough. Yes we can say that this is a sign of defeat when this feeling occur when you are beaten.

Hi tutul, How r u doing? seeing u after several months time. coming to your topic, I could understand the meaning and about the explanation what your guru had told you. No doubt that it is a good advice. But at the same time, one must have lot of patience to act like that. I myself dont have that much of patience and whenever i am disrespected or insulted by anybody, even if he is high position or status, I dont mind to give them back the same kind of respect, in the way they treated me. after several years, especially from my school age, I realize that this character of mine, turned me to be a guy who is Greedy for Respect. Till this day, money is second factor for me comparing Respect! So, the 'tool' anger had helped me in some good way to show one of my symbolic character. What i am coming to say here is, in our life, sometimes anger also must be shown in the right places. otherwise this big world will walk upon us. But in my life, anger had gave me more victories and at the same time, when i was silent in my olden days, i was made fool. Actually, we have a lot to discuss on the topic you had started here. There are 1000 points to talk on both sides. Take care and Have a great time!

No I don't see anger as a sign of defeat I feel that maybe you lose yourself in it and just can't control it, but yeah not defeat anger has to be let out or one will hold all that anger in and than when they explode watch out because it will be no good at all.They will not be able to control that I have lost myself to anger quite a few times well just one time this year so far because I am not one to get angry so quick, but some lady got to me. I will try to never again let anybody get me angry.

for me, anger is not a sing of defeat because there are a lot of kind of anger, one simple example is that you are anger to your son because your son did not do the things you want him/her to do or simple he disobey you or he might done something wrong, just like hes doing dad thing which did not please you then you will be angry to him. i mean it is just normal to a human to feel anger because how can you correct or discipline your child if you are not anger to the bad thing he done, i don't know about you but for me anger is normal..........

yes it may if you'll let it control your life! Don't let your anger lead your life coz it will never make any good for you and your life.

Hello Tutul :) First let me congratulate you for having a guru. You need to be very lucky to get divine guidance :). Yes What that spiritual person quoted was 101% correct. "Anger is an absolute sign of defeat". There was a deep meaning to it, Anger being one of the 6 vices makes us loose mental balance and concentration, This makes your mind give in to "anger", and you speak all ill, hurt others, waste your energy in wrong channels being angry. Words once spoken cannot be taken aback. In anger you loose your control over your mind and go on to speak anything. The main aim is to conquer the mind and keep those six vices in our control, when you let the mind conquer you, you are lost in the battle of "maya", which is a block to self-realisation and salvation. Guru's speak from that point of view, that anger is absolute sign of defeat.

Anger can be a sign of defeat. When people try so hard and don't accomplish what they set out to do, they can get angry because they feel a sense of failure. On the other hand, anger can be an excellent motivational tool. Some people use their anger to accomplish their goals.

hi. Anger is an emotion that occurs when you encounter unpleasant situation. In my own opinion it's a natural reaction because we have senses and emotions that reacts whenever we feel something. Like for example i got angry because my sister didn't finish her assignment just because she spend to much time in the net- i don't think it's a sign of defeat at all... it means that i care for her and that my anger is one way to catch her attention so she will listen at once :D i don't feel defeated at all.. but on the other hand.. i also get angry whenever i lose in games be it physical or virtual-- and yes i can say it's a sign of defeat so my answer to your discussion is-- it depends on the reason why you get angry. I hope i made sense. cheers!

Good evening dear friend , actually i have experienced manny times to get angry , but for manny types of reasons , and actually when i really think about it , i reallize just now that ANGER is as you said , a sign of deafeat , since i onlt get angry when i realize something happenned aned i can't have the way i want it any longer , or that i have broked something ( myself or someone else ) and i cant fix it anymore , then i realize that i get angry , and there for there is a sign of been defetead , but actually we should evoid getting angry , and try to be positive about it , and try to find another solution because getting angry wont resolve nothing !!! Florin , Over and Out

Well i think it's partly true though i am not sure. When people are angry they forget to concentrate or focus on the task at hand. Since anger is a distraction it moves them away from whatever they are focusing on. And moreover i believe that the person who is angry is actually afraid of something that he can't handle by himself and that's what really makes him angry. So i believe that anger is a sign of defeat! Cheers!

I have to say that I am very angry almost every time when my favorite football team looses a game or when the team that I am playing for is loosing. Or every other time when I have lost something, a bet that I loose, when I failed an exam or everything else. If we look at thing from this perspective, then your guru is right. But when we have a fight with someone, then we have not lost anything, and we are still angry, without being defeated. I would say that your guru has a point, but not entirely, because we are usually angry and sad when something goes wrong, but we can be angry other times as well.

First of all i would like to say that anger is not a sign of defeat, we all know that human have many reaction such as happiness, sadness, and anger is also a part of those human reactions, it cant be considered as a defeat because that will mean that everyone in the world has been defeated. We get angry when we dont like something and disliking something ir not a defeat. You should ask your guru about these quertions and find out whether they can be answered or not
