"On the Road with Thich Nhat Hanh" from Max Pugh



Organizers are very happy to announce a 2011 North American Teaching Tour for Zen master "Thay" (Ven. Thich Nhat Hanh). His continuing peace activism and efforts at establishing Buddhist mindfulness meditation communities in France, California, Vietnam, and elsewhere have made him the second most popular Buddhist figure in the world, just behind a certain Lama. His reputation is well deserved, for he is an embodiment of the peace he advocates. Neither intellectual or dynamic as a speaker -- in our opinion -- he is nevertheless a powerful for of integrity and authenticity to behold. His devoted followers are themselves an amazing bunch of engaged Buddhists who make attendance at his events half the experience.
