World famous Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh has inspired millions of readers in the practice of mindful living. Never before, however, have his renowned calligraphy artworks been collected in book form. THIS MOMENT IS FULL OF WONDERS collects more than 60 full-color artworks by the beloved figure in a richly textured hardcover package. As beautiful as they are inspirational, the ink-rendered phrases offer eloquent distillations of Buddhist wisdom, such as 'Peace is every step,' 'Be free where you are,' and 'Smile to the cloud in your tea' - seemingly simple sayings that resonate with meaning. Interspersed throughout the book are iconic passages from his best-known writings, printed on semitransparent overlays that faintly obscure, then illuminate, the artworks beneath. At once a tool for personal growth and a visual treasure, THIS MOMENT IS FULL OF WONDERS will delight spiritual seekers of all backgrounds, now and for years to come.… (mer)

A quick read, this first reading necessary I think to allow me to dip into it, focus on one or a few pages, and reflect in meditation. Closer in character to a reference book than to a novel or essay, then, not really intended to be read front to back or even linearly. We'll see if I find a means for incorporating it into my meditation practise. (

A friend who gave me this book didn't even suspect how much of a treasure such a book would be to me, but intuitively she picked it... This book takes no more than 10 min. to read - but it gives you an inspiration of a lifetime. Of course, it has to be read slowly, a page at a time, stopping at every page to absorb its meaning. Beautifully done, the book is a collection of ZEN calligraphy phrases by one of the great Buddhist masters Thich Nhat Hanh. I know him from a wonderful breathing meditation session I heard on a CD. Here too, he talks about breathing, mindfulness, the present moment, and letting go. I know I will return to the pages of this book again and again (!). (

This Moment is Full of Wonders could be described as a small coffee table book. It's perfect to pick up and randomly dip into. It radiates positive energy. The binding is lovely, as well.

Thich Nhat Hanh takes simple meditative thoughts and uses calligraphy to express them in this beautiful gift book. Every stroke is both purposeless and purposeful. The thoughts are there to read and reread in all their complex simplicity. Lovely. (

I have several of Thich Nhat Hanh's other books, and have found them to contain profound and insightful commentary on the human condition. This book, though, just didn't do much for me. In the true Zen sense, I suspect that the making of the calligraphy (an experience that we as readers just can't be party to) is perhaps more meaningful than the end product. On the other hand, I can certainly see that browsing through this little book could be comforting and calming for some. My advice is, if you are considering it, pick it up and leaf through it. If it pleases you, it could certainly serve as an aid to practicing mindfulness. If it doesn't speak to you, though, give it a pass and pick up one of his other books (Peace is Every Step, the Miracle of Mindfulness, Call Me By My True Names--he has written many) instead. (
