From the Publisher:
‘Teachings on Love is the kind of bottomless resource you can return to again and again for spritual guidance, wisdom, and personal renewel.’ Frederic A. Brussat, author of Spiritual Literacy
The Buddha's teachings on love taken from many
"We all need love. Love brings us joy and well-being. It is as natural as the air." (Thich Nhat Hanh) We all yearn to experience a love that is more joyful and profound. Now available in paperback, Teachings on Love provides a time-tested path we can follow to nurture this love in ourselves and for others. In this popular title, Thich Nhat Hanh draws from many sources to present the Buddha’s teachings on love in ways that are resonant for contemporary readers. He elaborates on the Four Immeasurable Minds—love, compassion, joy, and equanimity—as concrete expressions of our deepest love for ourselves, others, and all beings. Weaving together traditional anecdotes, personal experiences, and a deep understanding of the Buddha’s way of mindful living, Thich Nhat Hanh offers step-by-step practices that foster the growth of understanding and intimacy in any relationship, even with those who have done us harm. Vietnamese Zen master and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh became a Buddhist monk at the age of 16. In the 1950s, he and his fellow monks and nuns formed the movement known as "engaged Buddhism" to make their religion relevant for their times. He is author of over 30 books, and he travels worldwide teaching others the "art of mindful living.
