A treasury of writings and teachings from the beloved Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh—presented in a convenient pocket-sized book.

Since Thich Nhat Hanh's exile from his native Vietnam in 1966, the Zen Buddhist monk has become one of the most influential and beloved spiritual masters of our age. The seeming simplicity of his words belies the power of his ability to touch the heart and mind, inspiring spiritual practice. Known for his warm, generous, and joyful teaching style, Hanh has made his wisdom remarkably accessible and resonant to readers across the globe.

Now, that wisdom has been compiled into one pocket-sized collection featuring his most powerful and inspiring teachings. Taken from his many published works, these selections make up a concise introduction to Hanh's major themes, such as mindfulness, enlightenment, and compassion. They distil his teachings on the transformation of individuals, relationships, and society.

The Shambhala Pocket Library is a collection of short, portable teachings from notable figures across religious traditions and classic texts. The covers in this series are rendered by Colorado artist Robert Spellman. The books in this collection distil the wisdom and heart of the work Shambhala Publications has published over 50 years into a compact format that is collectible, reader-friendly, and applicable to everyday life.

The Pocket Thich Nhat Hanh serves as a testament to the enduring impact of Thich Nhat Hanh's teachings, offering readers an opportunity to embrace his profound insights wherever they may be.
