Publisher's summary

Learn how complete awareness can open the door to lasting transformation in work, worship, love, and all other areas of your life. Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's acclaimed theory of mindfulness explores ways to shine the light of awareness into our intimate relationships. He examines Buddhism's four basic qualities of authentic love: kindness, compassion, joy, and freedom. By looking deeply into ourselves and our loved ones, these qualities blossom effortlessly within our hearts and souls, spiritually nourishing us and everyone around us. Thich Nhat Hanh skillfully weaves together traditional stories, personal experiences, step-by-step instructions, and core concepts, making Teachings on Love a time-proven journey towards finding the miracle and self-fulfillment of authentic love.

Hearing is better than reading

it really adds a lot to hear him speak in his own voice instead of just reading the material.

If you're ready to hear it, to open

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Thich Nhat Hanh presents a depth of truth so simply, so accurately, so profoundly that it's really easy to miss it unless you truely listen hard, and then again, and then again. It's a bottomless well of wisdom. Told by one of the wisest, most loving, most gentle and loving souls living today.

Absolutely Spot On

Another great teaching by a phenomenal Zen Master. He uses humour, past and present life experiences, people from all walks of life and countries share a powerful and practical message on a topic the I believe many in this world have completely confused its true meaning. Thank you Thich Nhat Hanh once again.

Thich does it again!

Listening to Thich is just as impactful as reading his words. I've been wanting to get around to reading more of his material, and audible has allowed me to access more of his material. I love his messages of listening compassionately, and while I am still fairly new to his teachings, it's always great to come back and listen.

His words and voice were very healing.

I recommend deeply listening to this alone at home with a box of tissues ready.

I felt a sense of release throughout this experience and loved the bell sound transitions. Life changing to say the least. It brought be a sense of peace but was grounding. It’s the type of book you’ll definitely feel a need to revisit from time to time. Thank you Thich Nhat Nanh 🙏🏻

The Master

Would you consider the audio edition of Teachings on Love to be better than the print version?

The Master is incredible. It would have been even better if the recording had been remastered to edit out the coughing in the audience, which at times became distracting.

Worth the time

I was left smiling, at peace, after listening. Many pearls of Love’s Wisdom were received. May listen again in the near future. Thank you TNN!
