Un testo davvero illuminante e per il quale sono grata.
Semplice, fluido, un approccio del tutto diverso dal solito. Ma efficace.

"Questo è un punto molto importante: non pensare di dover combattere il male e di doverlo cacciare dal tuo cuore e dalla tua mente. Sarebbe un errore. La pratica consiste nel trasformare se stessi. Se non hai rifiuti non puoi fare il compost, e se non hai il compost non hai nulla con cui nutrire il fiore che è in te. La sofferenza, le afflizioni servono: sono organiche, quindi sai di poterle trasformare e di poterne fare buon uso." (

Repetitive and simple. But, very much an instrument of peace for those who suffer with their anger.

Through breathing and mindfulness, we can transform the energy of anger into a revelation of our passion and an expression of our compassion:

"Breathing in, I know that anger has manifested in me. Hello, my little anger. I will take good care of you."

"Darling, I am angry and therefore suffer. I am doing my best. Please help me." (

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.

This book saved several of my friendships during my 20s. It was also the first of Thich Nhat Hanh's works I'd read. He has since become a great hero of mine.

It's also the book that introduced me to the concept of Slow Eating, which I've used to great success in losing weight and eating healthier.

... And everything I just wrote seems like such a shallow commentary on what is a profoundly wise and affecting book. It will change your life, if you let it. (

Wonderful book for helping one with how to not control anger but turn it from 'garbage' to 'compost'. Has intervention ideas. (

If your house is on fire, the most urgent thing to do is to go back and try to put out the fire, not to run after the person you believe to be the arsonist. If you run after the person you suspect has burned your house, your house will burn down while you are chasing him or her. That is not wise. You must go back and put out the fire. So when you are angry, if you continue to interact with or argue with the other person, if you try to punish her, you are acting exactly like someone who runs after the arsonist while everything goes up in flames.
