The sage said, "The best thing is not to hate anyone, only to love. That is the only way out of it. As soon as you have forgiven those whom you hate, you have gotten rid of them. Then you have no reason to hate them; you just forget.
- Spiritual Dimensions of Psychology
There are people who don’t know you at all & yet they hate you so much. It’s a thing that happens all over the world. I once read that people hate as they love unreasonably. Sometimes people don’t even have a reason to hate anyone & yet they have severe problems with that person. We have some really biased examples of people hating others as they have another faith. It only shows that people don’t have any tolerance.
“I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.”
James Baldwin
But can you believe it…there is something bigger than hate & love which is indifference! Sometimes I find it pitiable that indifference can do more damage than anything else.
“Indifference is the strongest force in the universe. It makes everything it touches meaningless. Love and hate don't stand a chance against it.”
Joan Vinge
But seriously I wonder how do people manage to take out all the time to detest others. Holding a grudge against someone is not an easy thing. You become a slave of that emotion. This infinite hatred is the emotion that eats up a person. Hatred is more or less a fatal disease that will ultimately kill you but then the question is: are these people really alive who are being consumed by this emotion?
People even have issues when they see others happy. You know if a person is laughing or having a good time…that doesn’t mean he/she is happy. But even if you’re having a bit of fun, some folks have problems.
Having problem with someone else’s existence only shows that this is some sort of a complex.
