I do believe there's a place for anger in spiritual life. Just as a mother protects a child, as parents protect offspring under threat, we need a place for the conscious use of that fire. The positive side of anger as fierceness.

More quotes by Mark Coleman
It's important that we see clearly with wisdom and awareness, but also take action.
Mark Coleman
There are plenty of times we need fierce compassion, fierce love. Just like when a child does something that is very harmful and we say No!, we need some kind of fierceness. There's a certain kind of fierceness that can look like anger and has that fire of anger, but the difference is that it's not blinded with reactivity.
Mark Coleman
The essence of forgiveness is seeing our humanness and seeing that we all have our limitations and follies.

In the Buddhist tradition, where mindful meditation comes from, anger is regarded as a somewhat unhealthy,unskillful emotion because we can be blinded by it. We don't see clearly and tend to do things and say things that are harmful out of the anger because we don't have clarity.
Mark Coleman
We're not as different as we think we are.
Mark Coleman
With mindfulness, we can be with the experience in more immediate way. When we find ourselves flooded with an emotion that's come after the judgement, we've often missed the very judgment that triggered the emotion.
