These teachings form an essential spiritual discourse.'--Publishers Weekly Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Read this book, it may change your life Healthy approach on how to deal with anger in everyday life.

Rating: - Excellent Snow Lion Publications is a landmark when it comes to Buddhist literature, up there with Wisdom Books and Shambhala Publications. The Dalai Lama faces the issues of our times in this book; for we live in times of so much violence and anger in various situations, not just "global." We encounter them in our family life, in our work life, et cetera. Everywhere we go, this matter seems to pop right up!
