The Bells Of Mindfulness is Thich Nhat Hanh"s dramatic vision of the future of our planet and a call for environmental awareness. He uses the Buddhist teachings of interconnectedness and the impermanence of all things to illustrate the role each of us plays in caretaking the earth. Our understanding and acceptance of these teachings can open up the possibility of using our collective wisdom and technology to help restore the Earth's balance. Rather than seeing impermanence as an excuse for disengaging from the world, he argues passionately that engaging with the world is the key to our individual and collective survival.

Drawn from his best-selling title The World We Have,The Bells Of Mindfulness is a hopeful book that gives us a path to follow. Imbued with Thich Nhat Hanh"s clear vision, it provides the conviction and courage that enable us to stay on that path.
