Upcoming‘Love and Rage’ – Book Launch and Open Evening With Lama Rod Owens

For Lama Rod Owens, the co-author of Radical Dharma, anger is one of the most important aspects of his personal identity as a Buddhist, social activist, African American, and gay man.

Anger serves as a bodyguard for our personal pain and suffering. When recognised and handled with attention, love, and compassion, it can be a powerful mobilising factor in our solidarity and commitment to enacting social change. However, too many activist communities have an ill-informed, immature, and romanticised relationship to it.

What is needed, is a relationship to the heartbreak of anger that is embodied, non-destructive, and deeply healing for all. In this book he offers personal insights, stories from others, as well as Buddhist teachings and meditations for tapping into anger’s liberating potential.

Love and Rage: The Path of Liberation Through Anger  will resonate with anyone who wants to metabolise or harness their anger for transformation and change.

Lama Rod Owens is an author, activist, and a teacher in the Kagyu School of Tibetan Buddhism.

Considered one of the leaders of the next generation of Dharma teachers, Lama Rod Owens has a blend of formal Buddhist training and life experience that gives him a unique ability to understand, relate and engage with those around him in a way that’s spacious and sincere. His gentle, laid-back demeanour and willingness to bare his heart and soul makes others want to do the same.

He invites you into the cross sections of his life as a Black, queer male, born and raised in the South, and heavily influenced by the church and its community.
