For anyone who is just beginning to get into Buddhism or for people of other religious traditions, this is the book for you. Tich Nhat Hanh is the most known writer of Buddhism of our time and he has done a stunning job talking about and teaching the Buddha's ideas on love. This is an inspiring piece of literature; one that should not be missed.Book Review: Changed my life
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is fabulous. It is simply written and doesn't include an overwhelming dose of academic analysis of buddhist ideology, which often plagues other buddhist texts. I give it to all my friends and loved ones for birthdays or any chance I get, and they all love it as well. It becomes embedded in your way of thinking in a very positive and organic way.Book Review: Great book, great Dharma!
Summary: 5 Stars
Zen Master Thich Naht Hanh's approach to teaching Zen Buddhism is enlightening. I have found many of the teachings very useful in the practice of true Dharma. I believe anyone can practice these teachings regardles of faith or religious affiliation. It is a wonderful book which anyone following a spiritual path can profit from. It is inspiring and full of the energy of mindfulness we all need to live freely and happily.Book Review: Meditations on love...
Summary: 5 Stars
"Teachings on Love" helps water those seeds of love in your heart. Here one of the parts I liked the most: "Look into the eyes of your beloved and ask deeply, "Who are you, my love, who has come to me and taken my suffering as your suffering, my happiness as your happiness, my life and death as your life and death? Who are you whose self has become my self? Why aren't you a dewdrop, a butterfly, a bird, a pine tree? Ask with your whole body and mind. Later, you will have to ask the person who causes you the most suffering the same questions...To understand, you have to become one with your beloved, and also one with your so-called enemy. You have to worry about what they worry about, suffer their suffering, appreciate what they appreciate. You and the object of your love cannot be two. They are as much you as you are yourself...See and listen with the whole of your being. If you are fully present, the rain of the Dharma will water the deepest seeds in your store consciousness, and tomorrow, while you are washing the dishes or looking at the blue sky, that seed will spring forth, and love and understanding will appear as a beautiful flower."
Beautiful isn't it? Now I must go, I need to begin my practice...
