Often our feelings lead to difficult experiences. By recognising this and learning to control our emotions, we can make our life calm and enjoyable. If we want to be happy and free from suffering, we must learn to control our mind

In this powerful book, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche begins by presenting Buddha's popular teaching on the Four Noble Truths, which offers a clear and simple solution to all our problems, guiding us to an oasis of peace within our hearts.

He then focuses in particular on overcoming the problem of anger, learning how to develop and maintain patience when faced with even the most difficult circumstances.
