Thich Nhat Hanh
Born: October 11, 1926
Died: January 22, 2022
The first thing you notice about Thich Nhat Hanh is that he walks really, really slowly. he also speaks very deliberately. And when he wants a sip of tea, he stops speaking, breathes in and out, takes a drink, lowers his cup, breathes again, and continues.
It’s called mindfulness—focusing completely on what you are doing in the present moment—and the renowned Vietnamese Buddhist monk believes this spiritual practice is the key to not only inner peace but global peace as well.
