Described as the bitterest of the “three poisons” but also as the preeminent “doorway to awakening,” anger is one of the richest fields of study and practice for anyone—Buddhist or not—who seeks to transform oneself, one’s relationships, and society. Tricycle Teachings: Anger presents the Buddhist path from anger to wisdom, with insight and calm advice by H.H. the Dalai Lama, Robert Thurman, Ken McLeod, Joanna Macy, and other leading Buddhist teachers who have worked to transform anger into compassion, social justice, and peace.
