In American culture at large anger--particularly among men of color--is delegitimized demonized or supposed to be suppressed. In this book social activist and Kagyu lama Rod Owens offers a different understanding. For Owens anger is the most important aspects of his personal identity as a Buddhist social activist African-American and gay man. When denied or repressed unconscious anger can have a negative impact with destructive repercussions. But when recognized and used mindfully it can be a positive source of vitality courage and dedication as one travels the path of spiritual and social transformation. Anger serves as protectorate role as a bodyguard for our personal pain and suffering. When recognized and handled with attention love and compassion it can be a powerful mobilizing factor in our solidarity and commitment to enacting social change. However too many activist communities have an ill-informed immature and romanticized relationship to it. What is needed says Owens is a relationship to the heartbreak of anger that is embodied nondestructive and deeply healing for all. In this book he offers personal insights stories from others as well as well as Buddhist teachings and meditations for tapping into anger's liberating potential.\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePaperback:\u003c\/b\u003e 256 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e North Atlantic Books (June 16 2020)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1623174090\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 978-1623174095\u003c\/p\u003e                                                                                    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e    Product Dimensions:     \u003c\/b\u003e    5.5 x 8.5 inches    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShipping Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 13 ounces \u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alternative Medicine","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":31474130059313,"sku":"1623174090","price":27.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0253\/5479\/7105\/products\/418nIsLkJ_2BL.jpg?v=1576225681","url":"https:\/\/bookgaloisetu.myshopify.com\/products\/love-rage-liberation-through-anger","provider":"BookGaloiSetu","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
