away in 2022 amidst worldwide mourning. \u003cbr\u003eThis book is a Korean translation of a meditation book on \"What is Stillness?\" that contains the essence of enlightenment, which can be said to be the core of Thich Nhat Hanh's long-term practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In this book, Thich Nhat Hanh once again emphasizes that “being alive is a miracle.”\u003cbr\u003e We are told that we must “be aware” that we are alive, that we live in a world full of wonders.\u003cbr\u003e And for that, he emphasizes that we must acquire the 'power of silence' as a way to find and maintain composure in the midst of a flood of noise.\u003cbr\u003e It guides you on how to reflect on yourself, set a 'circle', and practice it continuously in your 'daily life'.\u003cbr\u003e The 'power of stillness' is not something that can be achieved through long periods of meditation or practice. \u003cbr\u003eWith just five minutes of practice, we can become truly aware of our presence in the here and now through mindfulness, and recognize and discover the beauty of the world around us.\u003cbr\u003e You can bring your distant mind back to face reality as it is.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Our heads are always full of thoughts.\u003cbr\u003e So there is no space to even hear other people's stories.\u003cbr\u003e If we want to connect more with others, we must listen to their stories.\u003cbr\u003e To truly listen is to understand, and to do that, we are advised to turn off our “inner NSTNon-Stop Thinking radio.”\u003cbr\u003e Through this book, readers will be able to experience firsthand the diverse and easy methods of daily practice that Thich Nhat Hanh explains as the most fundamental solution to inner solitude and mindfulness.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e You can preview some of the book's contents.
