A finalist for the 2001 Nautilus Award, Understanding Our Mind, is Thich Nhat Hanh's profound look at Buddhist psychology with insights into how these ancient teachings apply to the modern world. Based on the fifty verses on the nature of consciousness taken from the great fifth-century Buddhist master Vasubandhu and the teachings of the Avatamsaka Sutra, Thich Nhat Hanh focuses on the direct experience of recognizing, embracing, and looking deeply into the nature of our feelings and perceptions. Presenting the basic teachings of Buddhist applied psychology, Understanding Our Mind shows us how our mind is like a field, where every kind of seed is planted-seeds of suffering, anger, happiness, and peace. The quality of our life depends on the quality of the seeds in our mind. If we know how to water seeds of joy and transform seeds of suffering, then understanding, love, and compassion will flower. Vietnamese Zen Master Thuong Chieu said, "When we understand how our mind works, the practice becomes easy."… (meer)

In this book, Thich Nhat Hanh unpacks fifty fifth-century Buddhist verses on the nature of consciousness and relates them to modern life. This is pretty heady stuff, and a lot more technical and philosophical than my other dabblings into Buddhism, but I really enjoyed it. The translations of the verses themselves are beautiful, simple, and moving, and Thich Nhat Hanh's usual clear and compassionate writing style makes the complicated nature of reality stuff land more smoothly than it would in the hands of another author. I particularly liked his advice in the introduction to read just a bit each day, don't worry too much if you aren't understanding every word, and to "Allow the teachings to enter you as you might listen to music, or in the way the earth allows the rain to permeate it." By following his advice, I feel like I got a perspective on my own mind and existence that I didn't have before. Maybe don't start here if you have never read anything about Buddhism, but don't be put off by the complexity of the content if this is something you'd like to dig into a little more deeply. ( )

Full agreement with ShiraC's review: slow and deep, but well worth the effort. ( )

> POUR UNE MÉTAMORPHOSE DE L'ESPRIT, par Thich Nhat Hanh. — Pour une métamorphose de l'esprit est un livre écrit par Thich Nhat Hanh, un maître bouddhiste zen vietnamien. Ce livre aborde les thèmes de la méditation, de la pleine conscience et de la transformation personnelle. Il propose des techniques et des pratiques pour cultiver la paix intérieure, l'amour bienveillant et la compassion.
Pour Thich Nhat Hanh, la transformation personnelle est intimement liée à la transformation de la société. Il encourage donc les lecteurs à agir pour le bien-être de la planète et de toutes les formes de vie.
Le livre est constitué de courts chapitres qui sont faciles à comprendre et à appliquer dans la vie quotidienne. Il est accessible aux débutants en méditation, mais également informatif pour les pratiquants expérimentés.
Dans l'ensemble, Pour une métamorphose de l'esprit est un ouvrage inspirant qui offre des conseils pratiques pour éveiller la paix et la compassion en soi afin de les répandre autour de soi.

> La profondeur de la psychologie bouddhiste décrite ici résonne aujourd'hui avec les découvertes scientifiques dans le domaine des neurosciences. Les mots simples d'un Maître authentique nous offrent les trésors extraordinaires d'une connaissance inédite des rouages de notre conscience, de nos émotions. Un livre indispensable pour nourir notre compréhension sur la nature de notre esprit.

Il volume è un ottimo saggio di psicologia buddhista Mahāyāna, scritto da un celebre monaco zen vietnamita (della tradizione Rinzai). Nonostante la complessità della materia, lo stile è piano e semplice e la trattazione non è esclusivamente filosofico-intellettuale, anzi ha rimandi anche alla vita quotidiana. L'unica cosa che alla lunga risulta "pesante" è la ripetizione, in più parti del libro, di concetti identici: se da un lato ciò giova a fissare alcuni concetti-chiave, dall'altro rende meno scorrevole il testo.

This is a very deep book, and I cannot do it justice here. As always, Thich Nhat Hanh's style is clear and compassionate. If you seriously want to get a clue about nonduality, nonself and impermance, by all means savor this book.
