Sitting with Anger | August 10, 2014
Like a forest fire, anger tends to burn
up its own support. If we jump down into the middle of such a fire, we
will have little chance of putting it out, but if we create a clearing
around the edges, the fire can burn itself out. This is the role of
meditation: creating a clearing around the margins of anger.
