Old Wisdom in a New Format January 9, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Very practical advise & also very creative. I've listened & read quite a few self help books but this is very unique - I loved it! Not heavy handed or preachy - Thich Nhat Hanh's compassion comes through along with his giggle.

Thich Nhat Hanh has taught me and my family to be totally present and mindful in everything we do. This title and many others from Thich Nhat Hanh, have changed our family into a unit of knit together by love and mindfulness.

I received this as a gift and have listened to it 3 times, and each time I find more gems of wisdom and compassion. Hanh is a very gentls soul who gives many tips and insights for the ups and downs of life's journey. Highly recommended.

I first became aware of Thich Nhat Hanh by virtue of his being nominated for a Nobel Prize by Martin Luther King, Jr., during the Vietnam War years. I had heard little of him since that time until a friend mentioned him as being particularly relevant in her practice of Buddhism, particularly meditation. After listening to this CD, I have to agree with her that his gentle, sometimes humorous delivery provides a wonderful relief from the preachiness that is found in many speakers on religion. In fact, he cuts right through the dogmatic b.s. of most religion and goes directly to the nurturing of one's spirituality. Anyone who is struggling to deal with the violence and chaos of the world would do well to listen to Thich Nhat Hanh.

I have listened to many Dharma Talks (DT) from Thich Nhat Hanh and this one is one of my favourite. This DT is really fun to listen to. I have learned so much from Hanh's teachings and I am trying to practice and change myself for the benefit of my family.
What you will learn from this DT:
* Samatha (Calm Meditation) and Vipassana (Insight Meditation)
* Alayavijnana (Store Consciousness) and Manovijnana (Mind Consciousness)
* 5 simple meditating exercises (In Out, Flower Fresh, Mountain Solid, Water Reflecting, Space Free)
* Mindfulness in the context of the family
* Communication between fathers and sons
* How to deal with anger and hurt feelings
* The 5 remembrances (Aging, Ill Health, Death, Separation, True Belonging)
* True love vs. possessive love
* Meditation for children
* Inter-being, Impermanence, and much more
Thich Nhat Hanh uses a lot of examples in this DT to help the listeners understand better Buddhism. I highly recommend this product to anyone regardless of their religion.
