Books Descriptions
This collection of autobiographical and teaching stories from
peace activist and Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh is thought
provoking and inspiring. Collected here for the first time,
these stories span his life. There are stories from his
childhood and the traditions of rural Vietnam. There are
stories from his years as a teenage novice, as a young teacher
and writer in war torn Vietnam, and of his travels around the
world to teach mindfulness, make pilgrimages to sacred sites
and influence world leaders.The tradition of Zen teaching
stories goes back at least to the time of the Buddha. Like the
Buddha, Thich Nhat Hanh uses story?telling to engage people?s
interest so he can share important teachings, insights and life
lessons.
