About half the book was written by Hanh, the rest are writings from other sources that may be on interest to those going full blown gonzo into Buddhist Zen practice but adds little for the beginner. (  ) jwcooper3 | Nov 15, 2009 |  A classic book of meditation by a Vietnamese Buddhist monk in exile. This book describes many of the ways to seek mindfulness in daily life. (  ) ovistine | Nov 9, 2008 | It teaches the valuable art of not only how to live well but how to live with acute perception. Simple lessons, huge benefits. (  ) frank_oconnor | Sep 14, 2008 | This book is of the utmost interest to everyone in psychology. Mindfulness is the newest wave, causing a paradigm shift in much of therapy, causing an avalanche of text books. Save yourselves the trouble: It's all in this little book. Marsha Linehan et al. helped create the new craze in psychology, and this is one of her sources as well. It was recommended to me by a professor of religion, Patricia O'Connell Killen, many years ago, who foresaw the paradigm shift. I recommend Killen's books, she is one of the greatest minds of our times. ( )1  Godot73 | Jul 6, 2008 | Miracle of Mindfulness is about how to take hold of your consciousness and keep it alive to the present reality, whether eating a tangerine, playing with your children, or washing the dishes. A world-renowned Zen master, Nhat Hanh weaves practical instruction with anecdotes and other stories to show how the meditative mind can be achieved at all times and how it can help us all "reveal and heal." Nhat Hanh is a master at helping us find a calm refuge within ourselves and teaching us how to reach out from there to the rest of the world. --from Amazon.com 2 |  TunstallSummerReads | May 15, 2008 |  no reviews | add a review
