Thích Nhất Hạnh
About this listen
With poetry and clarity, Thich Nhat Hanh imparts comforting wisdom about the nature of suffering and its role in creating compassion, love, and joy–all qualities of enlightenment.
“Thich Nhat Hanh shows us the connection between personal, inner peace, and peace on earth.”—His Holiness the Dalai Lama
In The Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching, now revised with added material and new insights, Nhat Hanh introduces us to the core teachings of Buddhism and shows us that the Buddha’s teachings are accessible and applicable to our daily lives.
Covering such significant teachings as the Four Noble Truths, the Noble Eightfold Path, the Three Doors of Liberation, the Three Dharma Seals, and the Seven Factors of Awakening, The Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching is a radiant beacon on Buddhist thought for the initiated and uninitiated alike.

Simply wonderful
A wonderfully written book full of insight. I do feel, however, that one has to be at the right point in their life to properly appreciate and absorb the teachings.

So much value
The depth of knowledge contained in this book is vast. I've listened to it 3 times and each listen through I get something new out of it. I can see myself listening to this 10 times!
For those looking for straight Dhamma without the "content" of the speaker's neurotic and rambling stories this is highly recommended.

Difficult but profound
I found this the most difficult of the books by Thich Naht Hahn but well worth the effort. The narration however is disappointing. The narrator has a nasal intonation and for example pronounces water as ‘wordr’. This can be distracting. But the underlying messages are amazingly relevant despite being so ancient.

Not a religion person
Excellent description of Gautama Buddhas teaching without the religious layers added. Very interesting guide to a new philosophy for me and how it can be learned and practiced in everyday life. This has really helped through this pandemic. The metaphors and short stories really help guide your understanding and draw your focus on the persuit of happiness

Beautiful Wisdom but badly read
I had to really concentrate to get the depth of Thich Nhat Hahn’s wisdom because the narrator’s voice is so drab - Rene Ruiz is just reciting words like a schoolboy. It’s unlikely he has any actual devotional feeling about their content.
