Zen like Thich Nhat Hanh (Jan. 30)

Sounds True; Ananda (Dharma Buddhist Meditation), Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
(Sounds True) Introduced by Tami Simon. Thay (Thich Nhat Hanh) offers practical teachings on how to bring love and mindful awareness into daily life. Kind, purposeful, and illuminating, here is a treasure of traditional teachings to unify meditation practice and life challenges (artofmindfulliving).

Letting go of our cages gives us freedom.
"Mindfulness is the opposite of forgetfulness." Come into the present with the breath. Awareness is enlightenment. These are simple teachings from Vietnamese Zen Master Thay.

Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had a great friend in this Zen Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh -- "Thay" as he is lovingly called at Deer Park Monastery in Southern California.

MLK Jr. nominated Thay for the same honor. They were unified by peace turning their back on war and any government that promotes aggression, which is condemned by both religions, activist Christianity and Engaged Buddhism. What is Thay's style of Zen and practice? Vegan snacks. FREE/by donation. RSVP:
