It was under the bodhi tree in India twenty-five centuries ago that
Buddha achieved the insight that three states of mind were the source of
all our unhappiness: wrong knowing, obsessive desire, and anger. All
are difficult, but in one instant of anger—one of the most powerful
emotions—lives can be ruined, and health and spiritual development can
be destroyed.
With exquisite simplicity, Buddhist monk and Vietnam refugee Thich
Nhat Hanh gives tools and advice for transforming relationships,
focusing energy, and rejuvenating those parts of ourselves that have
been laid waste by anger. His extraordinary wisdom can transform your
life and the lives of the people you love, and in the words of Thich
Nhat Hanh, can give each reader the power “to change everything.”
“[Thich Nhat Hanh] shows us the connection between personal, inner peace and peace on earth.” –His Holiness The Dalai Lama
Nominated by Martin Luther King, Jr. for a Nobel Peace Prize, Thich
Nhat Hanh is one of today’s leading sources of wisdom, peace, compassion
and comfort.
