Synopsis: The definitive retrospective collection of the poetry of Thich Nhat Hanh, consisting of 200 works composed over the last forty years. The poems reflect his intimate experience of war and desolation, and throughout his clarity of awareness shines forth.
"Deeply touching, human and lucid, Thich Nhat Hanh`s poems have an almost uncanny power to disarm delusion, awaken compassion, and carry the mind into the immediate presence of meditation. It is because when he writes, Thich Nhat Hanh writes with the voice of the Buddha." Sogyal Rinpoche.
"The wryly enduring clarity of these poems makes the truth of a day or of a thousand years, finally one and the same moment. We see there is no use in counting. Simply the poet is here, and these are the words which will find him." Robert Creeley.
"These poems seep into you. Not through your brain but through your whole body. As I read them, I felt showered with light. These are bone simple poems that reveal the core of peace. I am thankful for them." Natalie Goldberg.
"The clear, still mind of this meditation teacher gives rise to piercing images time and time again. It is these poetic works - more than his essays or lectures - that show him clearly to be a Zen mystic." San Francisco Chronicle. |
