## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A cost-saving compilation
*by S***D on May 5, 2022*

Some of the sections are literally entire short books that he already published. I like it all in one place. However, I appreciate Thay's approach making smaller books with larger font. Feels less like a chore even if its the same information. As someone else put it as its a great reference book, and best to take it section by section versus trying to read it all at once. I could have saved some money if I bought this one first (beyond the self and the diamond that cuts are both here word for word) but I like the smaller books for a quick read. I also like "The Other Shore" as he did a newer translation of the Heart Sutra, which is more accessible and easier to study based on the structure. This book is like the omnibus that you need to have, but you'll still want the other books for ease and things like "the other shore" where there are some new insights

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Years Worth of Wisdom.
*by I***E on August 22, 2022*

You'll be able to spend YEARS studying this book about Buddhist psychology and meditation by Thich Nhat Hanh. If you are looking for a good introduction to Buddhism then check out The Heart of the Buddha's Teaching.If your interest is more about meditation then there are only two books you'll need: 1. Transformation and 2. Healing and Understanding Our Mind.Transformation and Healing is like a beginning meditators book and Understanding Our Mind is like a bible, It is a very deep read and is a great re-read too!Whether it's Buddhism or meditation if you have these four books you will have all you will need for the rest of your life. Good Luck!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended!
*by J***E on July 9, 2024*

A thorough study of the particular suttas/sutras fundamental to many of the Buddha's teachings, plus a wonderful commentary by the Venerable Thich Nacht Hahn explaining how to live precepts.
