A meditation in memory of Thich Nhat Hanh

<p>Rohan Gunatillake recounts his 2005 trip to Plum Village, the monastic community founded by the great Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh. Author of over 100 books across mindfulness, Buddhism, activism, and nonviolence, Thich Nhat Hanh inspired generations of people all around the world to explore mindfulness and meditation. Thich Nhat Hanh founded Plum Village in 1982, and it was where he lived since he was forced to leave his native Vietnam in 1966. That was until 2018, when he finally returned to Vietnam to live at the main temple for his Zen lineage, and that is where he died on January 22nd this year, aged 95. This special episode is dedicated to him.</p><p>Sign up for the Meditative Story newsletter:&nbsp;<a href="http://eepurl.com/gyDGgD" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://eepurl.com/gyDGgD</a></p><p>Become a Member of Meditative Story to access an ad-free feed, live virtual events, and our exclusive sleep music podcast, Sleep Song!
