The Four Dhyanas and the Path of Concentration

Thich Nhat Hanh · January 15, 1995 · Plum Village, France · Audio Only

Dear community,

TTSĐCTTĐB stands for “The Living Tradition of Buddhist Meditation,” a series of Dharma talks given by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh between 1994 and 1997. Through this series, the master guides us on a historical journey of Buddhist meditation from India to Vietnam and China. We will discover that Buddhism was transmitted from India to Vietnam hundreds of years before it reached China, and then continued to China, not the other way around as commonly thought. We will also learn about distinguished and profound Vietnamese Zen masters who are rarely mentioned. This is a long and fascinating journey.
