Transforming Anger and Hurt Into Spiritual Power 

Why do we respond to feelings of hurt and rejection by becoming angry?  Do we think anger will protect us? In truth, it does the opposite. It locks us even deeper into our experience of suffering and the feeling that we have no other response options. In this series, through talks, guided meditations, and discussion, we will explore Buddha's strategies for dealing with anger, hurt, and disappointment. Together we will discover how, instead of getting swept up in our anger, we can transform that impulse into a flexible, peaceful, and clear-minded response. Such a skillful response not only brings resolution and creates harmony, but it also enables us to transcend anger and hurt into Spiritual power.
