Story - Beware of donkeys!!
A donkey was tied to a tree. One night a ghost cut the rope & released the donkey free.
The donkey went & destroyed the crops in an adjacent farmer's land. Infuriated, the farmer's wife shot the donkey and killed it.
The wife of the donkey's owner got so angry that she & her sons set the farmer's house on fire.
The farmer, looking at his house turned into ashes, killed the wife and children of the donkeys owner
The donkey's owner was devastated at the loss. In reply, he killed the farmer's wife.
Angered by his wife's death, the farmer took a sickle and killed the donkey's owner.
Finally, when the farmer was full of regret, he asked the ghost as to why did it kill them all?
The ghost replied, "I killed nobody. I just released a donkey that was tied to a rope. It is all of you who released the devils within you which resulted into everything bad that occurred thereafter."
Think about this!! Quiet terrifying!!
Replace ghost with ego, donkey with anger and rope with love.
Read again!!
Ego releases donkeys everyday. Beware!!

Tata to the Saint. To which Swami Vivekananda replied, "Well, Sir, Even if these sacks contain Iron-rich soil, do you honestly believe that the Germans will tell you the TRUTH??? You must understand that No / NONE of the European Nations wish to...
