"A refreshing spring breeze at a time of global conflict and unrest. Thich Nhat Hanh has skillfully woven ancient Buddhist wisdom with modern insights to open a way of creating harmony that everyone can practice." John Daido Loori, Roshi

In Joyfully Together, Thich Nhat Hanh explores the spiritual, emotional, and practical aspects of developing a community for life. He stresses the importance of communication in all our relationships as the basis for resolving difficulties and maintaining an atmosphere of harmony in Sanghas, families, and even nations. Based on the experience of the Buddhist monastic community in Plum Village, the book presents both traditional and evolving practices applicable to current global concerns of peace and security, reconciliation, and mediation. Joyfully Together provides concrete methods for nonviolent communication that can help any community live together in joy and harmony.
