A recitation by Brother Phap Luu of the 50 verses on the nature of consciousness, which are the basis of the book Understanding our Mind by Thich Nhat Hanh.
Presenting the basic teachings of Buddhist applied psychology, Understanding Our Mind shows us how our mind is like a field, where every kind of seed is planted—seeds of suffering, anger, happiness, and peace.
The quality of our life depends on the quality of the seeds in our mind. If we know how to water seeds of joy and transform seeds of suffering, then understanding, love, and compassion will flower.
Vietnamese Zen Master Thuong Chieu said, “When we understand how our mind works, the practice becomes easy.”
