Product Description
Product Description
In this little treasure, Thich Nhat Hanh, the renowned Zen monk, offers timeless insight into the nature of real love. With simplicity, warmth, and directness, he explores the four key aspects of love as described in the Buddhist tradition: lovingkindness, compassion, joy, and freedom—explaining how to experience them in our day-to-day lives. He also emphasizes that in order to love in a real way, we must first learn how to be fully present in our lives, and he offers simple techniques from the Buddhist tradition that anyone can use to establish the conditions of love.
Thich Nhat Hanh, a Vietnamese Zen Buddhist monk, is an internationally known author, poet, scholar, and peace activist who was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Martin Luther King Jr.

True Love: A Practice for Awakening the Heart is a must for anyone who dares to cross the line into mindful relationship, whether it be with a life partner, or family members, or friendship, or people you pass on the street. All too often do we enter relationships - or find ourselves in them - without realizing deeply what we are doing. Relationships are not easy. The prime ingredient which all parties must bring is Love. Some may ask, what does a Buddhist monk know about Love. The answer is "Everything!"

True love - has been the first step to saving my relationship. If you want to find healing and simple heart warming advice on how to be your own life's gardener, turning garbage into flowers, pain into understanding and love then look no further. As always Thich Nhat Hanh just finds the right way to help you look at yourself and people around you with compassion. He makes me want to take care of the pain instead of suppressing it which causes so much suffering in relationships. 5 Stars are not enough for this little gem of a book. :)

Christian Love from Vietnam?
This little book may put you on the road to the Love of Jesus without all the mad fanaticism of, especially American, fundamentalist 'so-called' Christians.
