Be inspired by 21 key writings on nonviolence and reconciliation by Vietnamese peace activist and refugee advocate Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh. "The essence of nonviolence is love," he asserts, emphasizing that selfless love naturally leads to effective nonviolent strategies. This collection of essays, written during pivotal moments of social change, serves as a vital resource for those involved in social work, community organizing, and political activism. Thich Nhat Hanh reflects on the devastation of war, arguing that ethical, altruistic love rooted in mindfulness is essential for sustainable political action. Having been a key figure in the Buddhist nonviolent movement for peace in Vietnam during the 1960s and participating in the Paris Peace Accords, he embodies the belief that "There is no way to peace. Peace is the way." This anthology includes essays linking outer engagement with inner peace work, as well as poetry and the poignant script of the 1972 play, The Path of Return Continues the Journey. The characters are based on the author's experiences, particularly the young volunteers from his School of Youth for Social Service, many of whom lost their lives for their efforts. Thich Nhat Hanh recounts a tragic event in which five young men were abducted and killed, highlighting their commitment to healing and reconstruction amidst war. This work serves as both an elegy and a prayer for peace, showcasing his deep sorrow an

In troubled times, there is an urgency to understand ourselves and our world. We have so many questions, and they tug at us night and day, consciously and unconsciously. In this important volume Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh——one of the most revered spiritual leaders in the world today——reveals an art of living in mindfulness that helps us answer life’s deepest questions and experience the happiness and freedom we desire. Thich Nhat Hanh presents, for the first time, seven transformative meditations that open up new perspectives on our lives, our relationships and our interconnectedness with the world around us. Based on the last full talks before his sudden hospitalization, and drawing on intimate examples from his own life, Thich Nhat Hanh shows us how these seven meditations can free us to live a happy, peaceful and active life, and face aging and dying with curiosity and joy and without fear. Containing the essence of the Buddha’s teachings and Thich Nhat Hanh’s poignant, timeless, and clarifying prose, The Art of Living provides a spiritual dimension to our lives. This is not an effort to escape life or to dwell in a place of bliss outside of this world. Instead, this path will allow us to discover where we come from and where we are going. And most of all, it will generate happiness, understanding, and love, so we can live deeply in each moment of our life, right where we are.

Realizing that Buddha is within us, we see that the Pure Land (paradise) is here and now, rather than in the future. Finding Our True Home will open a new Dharma door to many students of meditation.

De Boeddha ontdekte 2500 jaar geleden dat de meeste vormen van lijden en ontevredenheid terug te voeren zijn tot drie oorzaken: verkeerde opvattingen, obsessieve verlangens en woede. Woede is een van de krachtigste, maar tevens een van de moeilijkste emoties om mee om te gaan. Eén moment van woede kan zowel voor onszelf als voor anderen noodlottige gevolgen hebben. In dit boek nodigt Thich Nhat Hanh ons uit om op een andere wijze dan gebruikelijk met boosheid om te gaan. Als geen ander is hij daarbij in staat complexe samenhangen eenvoudig en helder te verwoorden.

In dit boek onderzoekt Thich Nhat Hanh de verschillen en overeenkomsten tussen christendom en boeddhisme, en buigt hij zich over de vraag hoe ze elkaars tradities kunnen helpen vernieuwen. Hij richt zich daarvoor op die punten waarin op het eerste gezicht onderling verschillende concepten toch samenkomen, zoals het leerstuk van de wederopstanding en de beoefening van aandacht. Hij onderzoekt ook waar de boeddhistische visie omtrent de uiteindelijke aard van de werkelijkheid en het christelijke Godsbegrip elkaar raken.Uit deze dialoog blijkt de diepe onderlinge verbondenheid tussen de boodschap van Jezus en de leringen van de Boeddha, en de wezenlijke verwantschap tussen beide religieuze tradities.

The sensitivity and truths revealed by this Zen master, poet and peace advocate are touching and elegantly communicated in these wonderful tapes.

Fragrant Palm Leaves reveals a vulnerable and questioning young man, a student and teaching assistant at Princeton and Columbia Universities from 1962-1963, reflecting on the many difficulties he and his fellow monks faced at home trying to make Buddhism relevant to the people's needs. We also follow Thich Nhat Hanh as he returns to Vietnam in 1964 and helps establish the movement known as "engaged Buddhism" - starting self-help villages, a new university, a Buddhist order, and many other efforts for peace. Fragrant Palm Leaves is regarded by many Vietnamese as Thich Nhat Hanh's most endearing book. This extraordinary translation offers Western readers a glimpse into another time and into the mind of a great thinker and activist. It gives a model of how to live fully, with awareness, during a time of challenge and upheaval.
