Publisher Description
Freedom is not given to us by anyone; we have to cultivate it ourselves.
This compendium of the core teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh, based on a talk given at Maryland Correctional Institution at Hagerstown on October 16th, 1999, shows how mindfulness practice can cultivate freedom no matter where you are. Throughout the day spent at the prison, the incarcerated individuals showed a lot of interest in Thich Nhat Hanh's talk and asked him many questions. The teachings and his answers given to questions raised can be applied to any one of us—inside or outside prison walls.

About Thich Nhat Hanh
Thich Nhat Hanh was a world-renowned spiritual teacher and peace activist. Born in Vietnam in 1926, he became a Zen Buddhist monk at the age of sixteen. Over seven decades of teaching, he published more than 100 books, which have sold more than four million copies in the United States alone. Exiled from Vietnam in 1966 for promoting peace, his teachings on Buddhism as a path to social and political transformation are responsible for bringing the mindfulness movement to Western culture. He established the international Plum Village Community of Engaged Buddhism in France, now the largest Buddhist monastery in Europe and the heart of a growing community of mindfulness practice centers around the world. He passed away in 2022 at the age of 95 at his root temple, Tu Hieu, in Hue, Vietnam.
