How to Dream
‘The monk who taught the world mindfulness' Time
What do we want to do with our one precious life? What is our deepest desire?
In How to Dream, world-renowned Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh explains how to let our deep desire nourish us and, in turn, how to keep that desire alive. If our aspiration is lost or depleted, we must rekindle it.
With inspiring illustrations throughout, this pocket-sized book explains how to:
- Get in touch with our deepest dream
- Live our dream in every moment of daily life
- Keep our dream alive with the help of a community
- Protect our dream from the dampening effects of our fast-paced modern life
- Direct energy towards lasting personal, social and political change
With Nhat Hanh’s timeless wisdom, humour and compassion, How to Dream explores how, whatever our role in society, we can live into our deep aspiration and change the direction of civilisation.
