Description
Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh offers a blueprint for healthy, compassionate living through five essential mindfulness practices. These Five Mindfulness Trainings provide a basic statement of ethics and morality in Buddhism, arguing for their applicability in daily life and on a global scale. Nhat Hanh discusses the value and meaning of each precept, exploring its role in our changing society. He calls these trainings a "diet for a mindful society", suggesting they can help restore meaning and value in the world. This book presents a Buddhist contribution to defining secular, moral guidelines for living without harm to others. By examining the Five Mindfulness Trainings, readers can discover a path to restoring sanity, compassion, and health in their own lives.
