Abstract

The author discusses a retreat with Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh, also known as Thây. During the retreat, attendees were instructed to refrain from considering killing, stealing, cruel speech, and irresponsible consumption and sexual activity. Thây conducted dharma talks based on Anapasati Sutta, a breathing technique of Buddha designed to bring calm. Thây urged using meditation to confront the mind consciousness and convert negative emotions to joy.
