Being Peace: Classic teachings from the world's most revered meditation master by Thích Nhất Hạnh

Creating peace within yourself betters you and the community in which you live. You are not an individual but part of a collective whole and your individual actions have weight. They impact the lives of others. These are incredibly important ideas.

This a simple read but a very helpful one. For me it was impossible to read Being Peace without feeling relaxed and conscious of my breathing. The parts on mindfulness were on point as with dealing with conflict, anger, and peacefulness.
This one is meant to be read and re-read.

This book was very inspirational for me to be a better person, and to make the earth a better place. Buddhism does not compete with Western religion. I suggest anyone of any faith or lack thereof take the time to read this book. I now know that peace begins with me.

Admittedly, I did not give good focus or attention to this one; I also had a big space of time in between reading it. I know there was a lot to glean from the teaching. It felt a lot less practical, and a bit more in depth with the teachings, with less application. With the right focus I know I will get a lot more from it, but even still walked away with great teachings to think on.

A book so beautifully written on peace and mindfulness, with wise anecdotes and analogies. Highly recommended for everyone.
