The core practice of mindfulness, described
5By itune1209If there is only one book to take with you on the journey of life, this would be it.A snooze
1By Muffy TeppermanThe first of Thich's books to actually be...boring. Sure, the man is a genius and there were many highlightable quotes, but I wish I didn't spend the money on this. Instead I wish I bought his excellent children's book Is Nothing Something?Life-changing
5By RoadWarrior22The Miracle of Mindfulness is a truly life changing book. In simple and straightforward terms, the author describes the basics of meditation, leading to true relaxation. Although based on Buddhist tradition, this book is useful to all faiths and belief backgrounds. This is now a rare "cornerstone" book in my personal library.Beautiful
5By JAVIER MIRANDAThis book opened my eyes to the practice of mindfulness. I keep reading and rereading it. Thank you Thich Naht Hanh. Peace.
