As beloved Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh said, “When you wake up and you see that the Earth is not just the environment, the Earth is us, you touch the nature of interbeing.”He is blazingly clear: there’s one thing we all have the power to change, which can make all the difference, and that is our mind. Our way of looking, seeing, and thinking determines every choice we make, the everyday actions we take or avoid, how we relate to those we love or oppose, and how we react in a crisis.This book is for anyone who cares about the growing and devastating impacts of climate change, mindful consumption, how human and nature’s interconnectedness is paramount for the well-being of all humanity, and creating a better, regenerative world for us future generations.Energetic and altruistic, and filled of Thich Nhat Hanh’s inspiring meditations, Zen stories and experiences from his own activism, Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet shows us individual actions help guide institutional change, and bring healing and harmony to ourselves, our relationships, and our planet Earth.

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.

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.

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.

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. To hear that call and respond to it, we need silence. In his beautiful new book, Buddhist monk and Nobel Peace Prize nominee Thich Nhat Hanh explains how mindfulness is the practice that stops the noise inside. 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. Now, at last, we can answer the call of the beauty around us. Through silence, Thich Nhat Hanh reveals, we are free to hear, to see - and just be.
