Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching: Transforming Suffering Into Peace, Joy and Liberation by Thich Nhat Hanh

The Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching offers a broad introduction to Buddhist thought and practice. Thich Nhat Hanh explains the Four Noble Truths, the Noble Eightfold Path and other central teachings in relation to ordinary experience and the transformation of suffering.

The discussion includes the Three Doors of Liberation, the Three Dharma Seals and the Seven Factors of Awakening. For readers seeking a sustained foundation in Buddhism, rather than only a collection of brief meditation prompts.
