Anger as a Sacred Practice

All the Rage : Buddhist Wisdom on Anger and Acceptance, edited by Andrea Miller and the Editors of the Shambhala Sun, 2014
The practice of anger is not a practice in response to anger, intended to manage or fix it, but a practice of anger itself, based on an understanding of anger as something sacred to be handled with care. Zen teacher Joan Sutherland teaches on practicing with anger using the tools of inquiry, discernment, and remorse.
