"The true hero is the one who conquers his own anger and hatred."
Simplified meaning
Imagine someone who gets very upset whenever things don't go their way. They might yell, say hurtful things, or even hurt others. However, if they learn to stay calm and manage their anger, they can handle tough situations better. This kind of self-control makes them a stronger person.
Think about Martin Luther King Jr. He faced a lot of unfair treatment and hatred but chose peaceful protests instead of fighting angrily. By choosing peace over anger, he made a big difference in the world without causing harm.
Anyone can follow this advice by finding ways to stay calm when they're upset. This could mean taking deep breaths, talking things out calmly, or taking a break until they feel better. It shows real strength and helps create peace in relationships and communities.
