Thich Nhat Hanh was a world-renowned spiritual teacher and peace activist. Born in Vietnam in 1926, he became a Zen Buddhist monk at the age of sixteen. Over seven decades of teaching, he published more than 100 books, which have sold more than four million copies in the United States alone. Exiled from Vietnam in 1966 for promoting peace, his teachings on Buddhism as a path to social and political transformation are responsible for bringing the mindfulness movement to Western culture. He established the international Plum Village Community of Engaged Buddhism in France, now the largest Buddhist monastery in Europe and the heart of a growing community of mindfulness practice centers around the world. He passed away in 2022 at the age of 95 at his root temple, Tu Hieu, in Hue, Vietnam.
Reviews for the previous edition
Thich Nhat Hanh skillfully penetrates, like a diamond needle, to
the very marrow of his subject. In its suitably quiet way, this
book is a masterpiece.
—"New Asia review"
Thich Nhat Hanh s narrative and meditation on love and compassion
is so skillfully presented that before one knows it, the gap
between master and student, between Asian and American, and between
East and West has seamlessly melted away.
—"Parabola"
Thich Nhat Hanh s most personally revealing work.
—"Turning Wheel"
I am continually amazed at how Thich Nhat Hanh is able to translate
the Buddhist tradition into everyday life and make it relevant and
helpful for so many people. Cultivating the Mind of Love just might
be my favorite book of his .
—From the Foreword by Natalie Goldberg, author of "Writing
Down the Bones"
