A wise man was visiting a village with his students. He found a group of family members shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his students and asked, "Why do people shout in anger at each other?"
His students thought for a while,and one of them said, "Because when we lose our calm,we shout."
"But why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You may just tell him what you have to say in a soft manner as well," said the wise man.
Students gave some other answers but none was any good.
"When two people are angry with each other,their hearts become distant," the wise man explained. "To cover that distance they must shout to be heard by each other. The angrier they are,the louder they will have to shout at each other and cover that great distance."
The wise man then gave an example, "What will happen when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly because their hearts are very close. When they love each other even more,what will happen? They don't need to talk. They only look at each other and that's all. That is how close two people are when they love each other."
He looked at his students and said, "So when you argue,do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance you from others. Otherwise,there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return."
