Description

Contents

In this highly anticipated Buddhist perspective on resolving conflict in the Middle East and around the world, Nobel Peace Prize nominee Thich Nhat Hanh demonstrates how a real peace process is based on spiritual -- not political -- strength. Peace in oneself is the basis of peace in the family, society, and the world. Based on an ongoing Buddhist retreat project for Isr'lis and Palestinians, this book suggests practical ways to handle our strong emotions and misperceptions. Peace Begins Here is rich with stories from individual Isr'lis and Palestinians, as well as examples from Thich Nhat Hanh's life, including nonviolent action during the war in Vietnam and its aftermath. Supplemental material consists of personal stories from participants in the peace retreats, and practices on peace: deep listening, walking meditation, Beginning Anew, and Loving Speech
