The world-renowned Zen monk argues for a more mindful, spiritual approach to environmental protection and activism—one that recognizes people and planet as one and the same While many experts point to the enormous complexity in addressing issues ranging from the destruction of ecosystems to the loss of millions of species, Thich Nhat Hanh identifies one key issue as having the potential to create a tipping point. He believes that we need to move beyond the concept of the “environment,” as it leads people to experience themselves and Earth as two separate entities and to see the planet only in terms of what it can do for them. Thich Nhat Hanh points to the lack of meaning and connection in peoples’ lives as being the cause of our addiction to consumerism. He deems it vital that we recognize and respond to the stress we are putting on the Earth if civilization is to survive. Rejecting the conventional economic approach, Nhat Hanh shows that mindfulness and a spiritual revolution are needed to protect nature and limit climate change. Love Letter to the Earth is a hopeful book that gives us a path to follow by showing that change is possible only with the recognition that people and the planet are ultimately one and the same.

Zen a umění zachránit planetu je kniha složená z textů a promluv „otce mindfulness“, zenového učitele Thich Nhat Hanha. Mistrova slova doplňují komentáře jeho studentky, sestry Pravé Odhodlání. Díky nim máme příležitost vytvořit si plastický obraz samotného mnicha i života v jeho komunitě. Kniha byla dokončena krátce před Thich Nhat Hanhovou smrtí. Thayovi studenti shromáždili jeho nejpůsobivější učení o hluboké ekologii, angažovaném jednání, budování komunity a kolektivním probuzení. Přesto jde o texty, které nám mohou být užitečné i v obyčejném, každodenním životě. Thich Nhat Hanh totiž nevede ke slepé snaze „zachraňovat svět“, ale čtenářovu pozornost obrací k němu samému, k jeho vlastnímu jednání a prožívání. Dělá to proto, že základem umění záchrany planety je v prvé řadě schopnost zachránit sebe sama – transformovat svoji mysl, uvědomit si svou propojenost se Zemí a naučit se vzájemné spolupráci. Plné vědomí a radikální vhledy zenové meditace nám pak mohou posloužit jako zdroje síly k tomu, abychom tvořili nový svět, jehož součástí bude úcta k veškerému životu.

Autor je nejvýznamnějším vietnamským zenovým mistrem, básníkem a bývalým vedoucím buddhistické mírové delegace, zakladatelem Řádu Tiep Hien a Buddhistické university Van Hanh. Ve své knize učí, jak meditovat v každodenním životě. Thich Nhat Hanh se narodil v r. 1926 v Thua Thien ve Vietnamu. V období dospívání odešel z domova, aby se stal zenovým mnichem, v r. 1942 vstoupil do kláštera Tu Hieu. V r. 1964 založil v tehdejším Saigonu Buddhistickou univerzitu Van Hanh a Řád Tiep Hien. V témže roce zde založil, společně se skupinou univerzitních profesorů a studentů, Školu mládeže pro sociální služby založenou na buddhistických principech nenásilí a soucitné aktivity. Po skončení války sdružovaly tyto sbory více než deset tisíc mnichů, mnišek a mladých sociálních pracovníků, kteří pomáhali opravovat rozbombardované vesnice, stavěli školy a nemocnice, pomáhali rodinám bez domova a organizovali zemědělská družstva. R. 1966 jej pozvalo Společenství smíření a Cornellova univerzita na turné po USA, aby americkou veřejnost obeznámil s nesmírným utrpením svého lidu. Pro svou nekompromisní neutralitu se pak nemohl vrátit do vlasti (rodnou zemi mu bylo umožněno navštívit až v roce 2005). Usadil se proto ve Francii, kde mu byl r. 1983 udělen azyl. Poblíž Bordeaux založil zenové středisko Plum Village a stal se hlavou malého společenství adeptů meditace a mírových aktivistů. Podílel se mj. i na organizaci meditačních kurzů, jejichž náplní byla psychoterapie jak amerických veteránů, účastníků vietnamské války, tak i vietnamských uprchlíků. V r. 1967 byl Martinem Lutherem Kingem ml. nominován na Nobelovu cenu míru. Nhat Hanh je autorem více než šedesáti knih v angličtině, francouzštině a vietnamštině, z nichž několik bylo přeloženo i do češtiny (Mír v nás jako první z nich v r. 1992). V tomto sborníku přednášek, určených americkým mírovým aktivistům a adeptům meditace, podrobně rozebírá význam míru v sobě pro mír ve světě. Každý den děláme, žijeme věci, které mají co dělat s mírem. Jestliže si uvědomujeme svůj způsob života, svůj způsob spotřeby, svůj pohled na věci, budeme vědět, jak mít v sobě mír právě teď, v okamžiku, ve kterém žijeme. Máme-li v sobě mír, jsme-li šťastní, můžeme se usmívat, a každý v naší rodině a v celé společnosti bude mít z našeho úsměvu užitek.

We can spend a lot of time looking for happiness when the world right around us is full of wonder. But our hearts and minds are so full of noise that we canâ ™t always hear the call of life and love.

With gentle anecdotes, simple Buddhist wisdom and practical exercises, he shows us how to live mindfully so that all the internal chatter ceases and we are left with the eloquent sound of silence.

Blazes with love Keggie Carew Warm and insightful Polly Morland A love song to classical music Rachel Joyce Listen with Father is a book about the transformative power of listening, and about how we remember those we have loved and lost. At four years old, Caroline Sanderson fell in love with the music of Mozart after listening to it with her father. At eight, she fell even harder for the songs of David Bowie. Her dad made many gentle attempts to persuade her back to his world of classical music, but it wasnâ ™t until after he died that she returned to it, in memory of him. In a beguiling blend of memoir and biography, we follow Sanderson as she set out to listen, with great care and attention, to the music her dad loved, to work out why he so appreciated it and whether she could too. From hearing Mozart recitals in Salzburg to visiting Sibeliusâ ™s house near Helsinki and playing Robert Schumann at home on the piano, this is a beautifully touching and absorbing story of a beloved father, told through the classical music he cherished. A tender meditation on listening â “ to music, to memory and to the conversations we wish weâ ™d had Freya Bromley, author of The Tidal Year Like the best classical music, it ignites our imagination, and is a deeply human adventure in music s power to affect our emotional lives Lily Dunn, author of Sins of My Father

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The book that every parent, caregiver, and teacher needs to raise the next generation of antiracist thinkers, from the author of How to Be an Antiracist and recipient of the MacArthur “Genius” Grant. “Kendi’s latest . . . combines his personal experience as a parent with his scholarly expertise in showing how racism affects every step of a child’s life. . . . Like all his books, this one is accessible to everyone regardless of race or class.”—Los Angeles Times (Book Club Pick)ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: PopSugarThe tragedies and reckonings around racism that are rocking the country have created a specific crisis for parents, educators, and other caregivers: How do we talk to our children about racism? How do we teach children to be antiracist? How are kids at different ages experiencing race? How are racist structures impacting children? How can we inspire our children to avoid our mistakes, to be better, to make the world better? These are the questions Ibram X. Kendi found himself avoiding as he anticipated the birth of his first child. Like most parents or parents-to-be, he felt the reflex to not talk to his child about racism, which he feared would stain her innocence and steal away her joy. But research and experience changed his mind, and he realized that raising his child to be antiracist would actually protect his child, and preserve her innocence and joy. He realized that teaching students about the reality of racism and the myth of race provides a protective education in our diverse and unequal world. He realized that building antiracist societies safeguards all children from the harms of racism. Following the accessible genre of his internationally bestselling How to Be an Antiracist, Kendi combines a century of scientific research with a vulnerable and compelling personal narrative of his own journey as a parent and as a child in school. The chapters follow the stages of child development from pregnancy to toddler to schoolkid to teenager. It is never too early or late to start raising young people to be antiracist.
