Living Without Stress or Fear

I have several of Thay\’s books and have even had the opportunity to \”be\” at one of his retreats at Spirit Rock (Northern California) many years ago. I find this audio book to be soothing to my soul. Some words are difficult to discern but upon closer (and mindful) listening his message comes through clearly. I do find that I listen to the same sections more than once, not because I didn\’t understand, but because the wisdom is rich and the reminders to \”stop\” and relax, and smile resonate with me in the midst of my busy-ness. He implores us to be kind to ourselves and that if we are to have a peaceful world we must be at peace with our own bodies. This lecture is obviously a recording of a retreat session. I felt as though I was having my own \”space\” and he makes meditation accessible sprinkled with loving humor (\”you don\’t have to force yourself to sit in a lotus position – sit in the magnolia position\”). I am cultivating calm each time I hear this recording. May you be happy, may you be free from suffering, may you live with ease.

This is an unbelievable life changing teaching. We need this more now than ever. You cant put a price on the peace this program will bring into your life.

There is no word for what you really are, just notions. When conditions are right things will manifest. And, when they aren\’t things will cease to manifest. Ultimate reality transcends the notion of being and non-being. Nothing is created and nothing dies. Something can\’t become nothing; there is only transformation, a continuation. This can be seen through impermanence. These concepts and more are presented and explained by Thich Nhat Hanh. I found this to be an extremely enjoyable listen. Treat yourself to it and watch your spirituality grow by leaps and bounds.

Even with the volume all the way up due to the fact that this Monk is whispering and has an accent I could not understand nor follow what he was saying which was very unfortunate because I was very excited about this book. you need to be able to turn the volume up higher

This man is incredibly wise. It is a privilege to hear him speak. Also, his voice is very pleasant to listen to.
