The Path to Freedom. Peace and Joy in Every Step

In the book «The Path of Emancipation» (Путь к свободе), a retreat held in Vermont in May 1998 is described, where hundreds of people from all over the world gathered to learn mindfulness. Thich Nhat Hanh taught participants of this... retreat sixteen ways of breathing based on the «Lecture on Full Awareness of Breathing» by Gautama Buddha. The master taught to slow down the pace of life by focusing attention on breathing. You will learn to breathe, walk, and sit mindfully. The practice of mindfulness will free you from suffering and teach you to live joyfully and happily.
The book «The Gift of My Master» (Дар моего мастера) tells the story of a young monk during his psychological and spiritual formation. This book teaches us to always remain Human, no matter how difficult the circumstances of our lives, even in war with all its horrors and violence.
Thich Nhat Hanh is a famous Vietnamese Buddhist teacher, poet, scholar and human rights activist.
