Synopsis

The sequel to the bestselling Miracle of Mindfulness. A “friend rather than a book,” The Sun My Heart is a true spiritual classic with wisdom for any situation.
One of Thich Nhat Hanh’s most beloved books, The Sun My Heart contains the journey, on the path of everyday practice, from mindfulness to insight. Using the objects and events of everyday life in his hermitage in Plum Village–the gradual settling of the pulp in a glass of apple juice or the wind blowing into the room and scattering papers about–Thich Nhat Hanh draws from Buddhist psychology, epistemology, and the world of contemporary literature and science to guide the reader along the path of clarity and understanding.
A companion guide for meditators, The Sun My Heart contains many of Thich Nhat Hanh’s core teachings, and encourages readers to use their practice to discover their own insights. As he writes: “Wisdom is a living stream, not an icon to be preserved in a museum.”

About Thich Nhat Hanh

Thich Nhat Hanh was born in central Vietnam in 1926 and lived in a country at war until he was forced into exile in the 1960s for advocating peace between the warring sides. He was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., described by H. H. the Dalai Lama as someone whose teachings "can change individual lives and the life of our society, . . . [drawing] the connection between personal, inner peace and peace on Earth." Thich Nhat Hanh returned to Vietnam after more than half a century in exile and died in January 2022.

Với tôi, thầy Thích Hạnh giống như con thuyền chở Pháp mà nếu thiếu thầy, tôi sẽ chỉ hiểu được một phần rất nhỏ trong kinh sách thâm sâu của Phật, người tôi vô cùng ngưỡng mộ về trí tuệ.

Quyển này phức tạp và vĩ mô nhất trong số những quyển của Thầy mà mình từng đọc. - Này, em là ai? - Em là em và em cũng là tổ hợp tất cả những gì không phải là em.......more

It took me three tries to finish this one. The opening is among my favorite things he's ever written, and the next part among my least. It was hard to get past that barrier but worth it, for me. One thing I especially like about this book is that you can tell Thich Nhat Hanh sat down and wrote it, w......more

Một cuốn sách nữa của thầy. Kết thúc vào ngày thầy trở lại Việt Nam 28/8/2017. Một cuốn sách rất hay và khó. Một cuốn sách hữu ích. Sẽ đọc lại nhiều lần nữa. Lắng lại như một cốc nước táo.......more

Goodreads review by JD on August 07, 2022

I've read this title for the second time. I got a lot more out of it this time. One of author's strengths is that he uses analogies in everyday behavior, much like what the Zen Buddhists are so fond of. He mentions the use of koans, a technique of the Rinzai school. Koans are terse figures of speech......more
