“Thich Nhat Hanh...is more my brother than many who are nearer to me by race and nationality, because he and I see things exactly the same way. He and I deplore the war that is ravaging his country...for exactly the same reasons: human reasons, reasons of sanity, justice and love.”
-Thomas Merton
“Thich Nhat Hanh shows us the connection between personal, inner peace and peace on earth”
- His Holiness the Dalai Lama
“Thich Nhat Hanh has the ability to express some of the most profound teachings of interdependence and emptiness I’ve ever heard. With the eloquence of a poet, he holds up a sheet of paper and teaches us that the rain cloud and the tree and the logger who cut the tree down are all there in the paper. He’s been one of the most significant carriers of the lamp of the
dharma to the West that we have had.”
- Jack Kornfield, the author of The Wise Heart.
“[Thich Nhat Hanh’s] scholarship is very well grounded without being obscure. He makes teachings that are hard to grasp accessible and he makes them come alive. You can really see
how to use them.”
- Alan Senauke, former executive director of the Buddhist Peace Fellowship.
