Book #15 of the destined 50.
Taming the Tiger Within: Meditations on Transforming Difficult Emotions by Thich Nhat Hanh, review.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%ADch_Nh%E1%BA%A5t_H%E1%BA%A1nh: for more info on the author.
I really liked reading this briskly, for the most part.
I really, in earnest, am not making fun of the author, or his Buddhism; I have enjoyed his poetry one poem at a time for many a year.
Might it be that his fear of women might reflect the greater misogyny that might be spoken of in Asian culture?
I really appreciate the Buddhist energy of this book, which really felt like I read, and properly absorbed, good thought by... soberness, and reflection, in as if five minutes.
I would recommend this book.
