Autor Thich Nhat Hanh, Brother Phap Linhen Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 mai 2027
In alternating chapters, Thich Nhat Hanh and his monastic student, Brother Spirit - a Cambridge University-trained mathematician and composer - share their insights on how Zen techniques can be used to enhance mental clarity, intuition and focus, essential qualities for achieving significant scientific and creative breakthroughs.
Thich Nhat Hanh addresses the roots of global crises and their solutions, predicting a new age of understanding and discovery if the next generation of scientists and innovators can transcend dualistic thinking. Meanwhile, Brother Spirit offers a raw and emotional account of his journey from excessive rationalism and scepticism to embodied spirituality.
Drawing on the insights of both science and Buddhism, The Art of Unknowing explores how Zen practices can help us face the challenges of a rapidly destabilising world, offering a radical path to becoming happier, kinder and more free.
