How to See

Reach true clarity and insight by looking deeply, minimizing misperceptions, and having the courage to see things as they really are.
The seventh book in the bestselling Mindfulness Essentials series, a back-to-basics collection from world-renowned Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh that introduces everyone to the essentials of mindfulness practice.
Profound and always approachable, Thich Nhat Hanh teaches us the art of looking deeply--in to our knee-jerk assumptions and runaway thoughts--so we can recognize the true meaning and essence of our lives. How to See teases apart the act of seeing--both inside and outside of ourselves, and points the way to developing true clarity.

Thich Nhat Hanh (1926-2022) was a Vietnamese Zen master, poet, scholar, and peace activist who was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He wrote more than 100 books of poetry, fiction, and philosophy, with over a million copies in print. He survived three wars, persecution, and more than thirty years of exile. He was a Buddhist monk and the master of a temple in Vietnam, the lineage of which is traceable across two centuries to the Buddha himself.
