"Before reading this book, I was developing my own framework to understand life, birth, death, happiness, etc. The insights in this book offers me a different perspective while some ideas and principles resonate with my own. They all contribute to further developing my own philosophy. This will be true for every reader. Never expect your life will be changed immediately or you will be happy forever or you will clearly understand everything after reading one book. Always try to develop your own way to understand this world by absorbing wisdom and insights from others. Keep learning and practicing.
Among others, true happiness is from inside of yourself rather than from goals or expectations set by others like money, fame, social status, etc. In this way, we own our own life and we live deeply with our own life every day." - Amazon Reviewer

In troubled times there is an urgency to understand ourselves and our world. We have so many questions, and they tug at us night and day, consciously and unconsciously. In this important volume, Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh - one of the most revered spiritual leaders in the world today - reveals an art of living in mindfulness that helps us answer life's deepest questions and experience the happiness and freedom we desire.

Thich Nhat Hanh presents, for the first time, seven transformative meditations that open up new perspectives on our lives, our relationships, and our interconnectedness with the world around us. Based on the last full talks before his sudden hospitalization, and drawing on intimate examples from his own life, Thich Nhat Hanh shows us how these seven meditations can free us to live happy, peaceful, and active lives and face ageing and dying with curiosity and joy and without fear.

Containing the essence of the Buddha's teachings and Thich Nhat Hanh's poignant, timeless, and clarifying prose, The Art of Living provides a spiritual dimension to our lives. This is not an effort to escape life or to dwell in a place of bliss outside of this world. Instead this path will allow us to discover where we come from and where we are going. And, most of all, it will generate happiness, understanding, and love, so we can live deeply in each moment of our lives, right where we are.
