Together We Are One Honoring Our Diversity, Celebrating Our Connection. Book Review by Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat. Thich Nhat Hanh is a Vietnamese Zen master who has written many books and leads retreats around the world on mindful living. He is featured on Spirituality & Practice as a. We can find our true home through breath and mindfulness exercises like those described in this paperback. Thich Nhat Hanh is concerned about Western folk who don't know how to rest anymore. When the body becomes tense regularly, chronic pain can appear. When an animal is hurt, it immediately lies down to rest and stays very still. They don't eat or move around. After this siesta, they are revitalized and ready to go back into the fray. Thich Nhat Hanh recommends that when stressed to the max, we practice sitting, breathing, or walking as a way to bring calm to our bodies and our minds. Civilization, he writes, means accepting everyone. He sees the complex of superiority and inferiority as two forms of sickness based on the illusion of self. By cultivating compassion for ourselves, we can begin to travel the path of peace which leads eventually to having no enemies. Imagine your world as villain free with no need to wage a war of "us" versus "them." Imagine all the excess energy you'd have if you let go of grudges, temper tantrums, and rage. And finally, imagine what it would be like to live each day without fear and paranoia about our safety. A Buddhist practice is to chase away the imagined boogie man with: "I feel safe, wherever I am." For Thich Nhat Hanh, the sangha is the masterpiece of the Buddha, a community of caring and sharing, an oasis in the world for healing and transformation. Reading the passages by his practitioners at Plum Village, we can see just what he means. Books.

Together We Are One is based on teachings given to Buddhist practitioners of colour. Based on four retreats that Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh led specifically for people of colour, this book is for anyone who has ever felt excluded or alienated, or anyone concerned with issues of social justice. Although Together We Are One is based on teachings given to Buddhist practitioners of colour, readers of all backgrounds and walks of life will find it an inspirational and practical guide. In chapters focusing on honouring our ancestors, developing understanding and compassion, and seeing the world in terms of interbeing, Nhat Hanh shows how meditation and the practice of looking deeply can help create a sense of wholeness and connectedness with others. Chapters are interspersed with mindfulness practice exercises and the personal stories of skilled writers, such as Larry Ward (author of Love’s Garden ), Sr. Chan Khong (author of Learning True Love ), and Rev. Hilda Ryumon Gutierrez Baldoquin (editor of Dharma Colour and Culture ), about their discovery of a spiritual path, their experience of finding balance, overcoming obstacles in an unpredictable world, and maintaining and sharing insights. Together We Are One is a valuable addition to the unique expression of Buddhism in the West. As in all his writings, Thich Nhat Hanh does not suggest we replace traditional beliefs and customs with Buddhism, but rather emphasises that a mindful approach to daily life and interactions can help overcome misperception and separation so that we might honour and transcend our differences. Nhat Hanh’s primary focus highlights the basic how-to’s of Buddhist practice, such as mindful walking and eating, the practice of Looking Deeply, and a never before published multicultural version of the Touching the Earth Ceremony, making them accessible possibilities for a better everyday life. Colors of Compassion is a companion movie to the film. Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh is a global spiritual leader, poet and peace activist, revered around the world for his pioneering teachings on mindfulness, global ethics and peace.

Celebrating Thich Nhat Hanh. The last time I saw Thich Nhat Hanh was not too long before his stroke. It was in 2013, during his final North America teaching tour, and we were at Blue Cliff Monastery in the Catskills. When the retreat wrapped up, I stayed to interview him, and we talked about many things—his family, karma, the key to happiness, and more—then at the end, feeling a mix of sad and happy, I put my hands together in gassho . It was wonderful to connect with Thay, but I knew he was getting older and I wondered if I’d ever see him again. Because of train time, I had to spend one more night at Blue Cliff. Almost all of the eight-hundred-plus retreatants had gone home, leaving only the monastics and lay volunteers, so the next morning we were a small group eating breakfast under a tarp. Admittedly, I wasn’t eating my corn on the cob as mindfully as I could have. But suddenly I was brought back to the present moment by the surprising sight of Thich Nhat Hanh crossing the lawn and coming toward us.
