A Nobel Peace Prize nominee & internationally bestselling author offers wisdom for cooling the flames of anger.
It was under the Bodhi tree in India 2,500 years ago that Buddha achieved the insight that just three states of mind were the source of all our unhappiness:ignorance,obsessive desire and anger. Each of these are equally difficult,but in one instant of anger,lives can be ruined and our spiritual development can be destroyed. Twenty-five centuries after the Buddha's insight,medical science tells us that the Buddha was right.In Anger,Thich Nhat Hahn offers a fresh perspective on taking care of our anger as we would take care of a baby crying -- picking it up,talking quietly to it,probing for what's making it cry. Laced with stories and techniques, Anger offers a wise and loving look at how to transform this difficult emotion into peace and bring harmony and healing to all.
