Love. How we can nourish it in our heart-mind.

At a young age, the now world-famous Zen master and monk Thich Nhat Hanh fell in love with a young nun. Decades later, he tells of this love, of his longing and his inner conflicts with great openness. He explores the essence of love and shows that love always takes us beyond ourselves and can thus become part of a profound practice. In the second part of this book, he explains the Buddhist teachings that particularly inspire such a practice. "Thich Nhat Hanh teaches us how to love in a good way."
