From the Publisher
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 angerone of the
most powerful emotionslives 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."
