Buddhism, as taught by Thich Nhat Hanh, emphasizes that within the current moment lie the potential for all things, including freedom from the cycle of suffering known as samsara. In this live audio retreat led by Thich Nhat Hanh, participants are guided through traditional Buddhist practices that enable them to connect with their inherent mindfulness and discover the ever-present joy that patiently awaits entry into their lives.
In 1966, Thich Nhat Hanh, a humble Buddhist monk, received a Nobel Peace Prize nomination from Martin Luther King, Jr. Since then, he has developed a unique method of imparting essential Buddhist truths in the West. This approach addresses the spiritual challenges specific to our modern era while respecting diverse faiths. Thich Nhat Hanh teaches that the seeds of both inner and outer peace already reside within every individual; one simply needs to learn how to access and nurture them. According to him, this is the way to overcome fear and anger, paving the path toward a more tranquil world.
Throughout this retreat, participants will be introduced to a wealth of detailed meditations aimed at deepening their awareness and consciousness in everyday activities such as walking, breathing, and communication—even amidst the chaos of traffic. The Present Moment offers a rare opportunity to learn ancient Buddhist practices directly from a living master of the tradition. These practices remain as transformative today as they were thousands of years ago. The program provides over seven hours of direct instruction from this esteemed contemporary Buddhist meditation master.
