🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Public displays of anger are generally frowned upon. Being 'Seik To' is seen as losing 'face' and failing to maintain 'Aye-say' (coolness). Subordinates will often use 'Seik To' to describe a boss they find difficult, but they will rarely say it to the boss's face. Sometimes, a partner might call the other 'Seik To Lay' (Little short-tempered one) as an affectionate teasing term. In Buddhist teachings, 'Seik To' is linked to 'Dosa' (hatred/anger), one of the three poisons. Overcoming it is a goal of meditation.

💡

⚠️

Don't over-use

The 'Seik Shay' Balance

💬

Cooling Down

If someone is 'Seik To', the best response is 'Seik lshauk' (Relax your mind) or 'Aye-aye say-say' (Stay cool).
