This book is for anyone who wants to learn how to respond to difficult people with greater clarity and wisdom. It helps you explore your reactions, break free from knee-jerk response patterns, and discover how these challenging individuals can become valuable teachers in life-what the author refers to as troublesome Buddhas.
In this book, Mark Westmoquette draws on his personal experiences of profound tragedy. He emphasizes that the only way to grow is by confronting our pain, acknowledging our emotions, and committing to break the repeating patterns of suffering. By cultivating awareness and kindness in our relationships, our initial stance of "I can't stand this person; they need to change"" can naturally transform into a more inclusive perspective.
Zen is about discovering your true nature and, once awakened to it, learning to live from that realization. There will always be people who irritate or provoke you-perhaps even to the point of making your blood boil. Mark teaches us how to listen to those feelings and begin relating to them in a transformative way.
