The Art of Power Audiobook

" life is more than it seem's , i have to catch up.,. "

" The image of the handwritten letter to George W. Bush is worth owning a copy of this. One cannot help but wonder what the president thought of it, if he even read it. "

" I find all of Thich Nhat Hahn's offerings are so wonderful. All I can say is I'm thankful someone like this exists in the world. "

" Good, simple writing that effectively explains where real power comes from (hint: not one's self) and how to take the contrary actions necessary to begin accessing the real deal. Two useful appendices at the end of the book outline a variety of simple, easily-implemented mindfulness practices (spoiler: sitting cross-legged and straight-backed on a small cushion is not one of them), and the story of Patagonia's unusual business practices as told by its unusual founder, Yvon Chouinard. "

" I wasn't sure if I would get anything out of this, because I am not a business person nor do I desire power, however it is Thich Nhat Hanh, and it was wonderful as always, more about Mindfulness than power...with him, you have to let the title go and know that his words are magical no matter what. "

" Buddist principals applied to one's approach to work and guiding your life decisions so you can understand what it means to be powerful. You should read this book when you need some philosophical guidance. "

" How I yearn to live this way, yet apparently I'm not willing to put in the effort. "

" Thich Nhat Hanh is a personal hero of mine. His books are like reading concentrated wisdom. I plan to re-read this in the future. "

" Everything I've read by Thich Nhat Hanh is worthwhile. "

" Like all books by Nhat Hanh, a good read and calms me down. I thought this wasn't his best "

" An excellent examination and review of Buddhist principles that are easy to lose track of in daily living. "

" Listened to some parts of it twice. Some good insights into mindful living and letting go. "

" I love this book, beautifully laid out wisdom that changes your thinking gentle "

" Good information "

" A pleasant read. It can sometimes feel repetitive or simple, but I think that's part of "zen". Conveys concrete ideas of zen buddhism well to beginners and gives practical steps for changing everyday life. I would recommend for someone who doesn't understand Buddhism. "

" i'm giving this book a try, i hope it would be worth it... "

" Great read. Best was the memo by Yvonne Chouinard of Patagonia. Will definitely read again. "

" This is a great start into Buddhist philosophy and mindfulness. Reading this book made me happy. "

" everything by Thich Nhat Hanh is amazing. This book covers the concept of power from a Buddhist perspective and what exactly power really means and how it manifests in each person's life. "

" I am listening to this book on CD every day on my way to work. I listen to each CD several times. There is so much to learn from this guy.... He is the real deal - you know, a super-enlightened Buddhist monk and all that. "

" Don't get confused because of the title. "

" Spiritual counsel to Martin Luther King, and Dalai Lama. Deconstructs the modern definition of power and advances a "new" one - the power to be happy in the present....whatever dude. Ha. "

" Good, but a lot of repetition. Good insights about how and why to live more mindfully as an individual.Also has information about businesses being more mindful, which did not pertain to me. "

" Awesome. It was very pertinent to my spiritual thoughts and growth lately. "

" A newer release of my Teacher. I highly recommend this one, highly. An amazing ascension Buddhist read. "
