How to love by Thich Nhat Hanh

 

Just finish reading this book. Its a book of collection of quotes from various talks by the Buddhist Monk Thich Nhat Hanh.

I have watched some of the videos and read some quotes here and there by him. I loved it and hence bought 2 of his books. I didn't know that this book is collection of quotes. Had I known...I guess I wouldn't buy it.

Obviously its not a book to be read in a day or two or even rush through the quotes. I would read a few pages now and then and tried tomeditate on it the whole day. The beauty of this book is....its not random collection of quotes. Its organised to give a flow. All about love...starting from what is true love, how to cultivate, how to Express,  importance of self love, how to forgive myself,  others, life situation and loved ones........ how to support each other in love, how to sustain the love in the relationship.......

Very thoughtful,  mindful, compassionate expression of love.

It helped me gain some insights in some intense situations and regain my control over my emotions. So it was worth investing my time reading this book.

It was a slowwww. ....pleasant reading....
