Thich Nhat Hanh, working with the teachings of ancient Master Lin Chi, demonstrates how practicing mindfulness and sitting Zazen are like watering the seeds of enlightenment that already exist within us. For those, like myself, who are perhaps too eager in their efforts at spiritual growth, Thich Nhat Hanh offers this timely teaching of Non-attainment. Thich Nhat Hanh helps us to see that there is no enlightenment to be attained, only mindfulness of our true nature, which already is enlightenment. The book's subtitle, "Waking up to who you are", encapsulates this refreshing, essential guide to simply stopping and being. Thich Nhat Hanh puts it best, "Being fully present is enough to occupy us our whole lives." Most highly recommended.
