4 cd's
Running time: 5 hours 47 minutes
Narrator: Ken McLeod

It was under the Bodhi tree in India 2,500 years ago that the 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
he was right. Anger can also ruin our health. It is one of the most powerful
emotions, and one of the most difficult to deal with.

But it can be dealt with, and it can be overcome. anger offers us a fresh
perspective on taking care of our anger, suggesting we take care of it as we
would a crying baby -- touching it, talking quietly to it, probing for what's
making it cry.

Filled with stories, techniques, and practical advice, Anger offers a wise and
loving way to transform anger into peace, and bring harmony and healing to all
the areas and relationships in our lives that have been affected by it. As the
Dalai Lama says, Thich Nhat Hahn "shows us the connection between personal,
inner peace and peace on earth."


Thich Nhat Hanh is a Vietnamese Buddhist monk, scholar, poet, and peace
activist. During the war in Vietnam, he worked tirelessly for reconciliation
between North and South Vietnam. His lifelong efforts to generate peace moved
Martin Luther King Jr. to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1967. He
lives in a small community in France where he teaches, writes, gardens, and
works to help refugees worldwide. Thich Nhat Hanh has conducted many mindfulness
retreats in Europe and North America helping veterans, children,
environmentalists, psychotherapists, artists and many thousands of individuals
seeking peace in their hearts, and in their world.
