Greetings fellow Buddhism enthusiasts!

Here is a huge list of responses to the passing of Thich Nhat Hanh

Following the death of the great Buddhist teacher Thich Nhat Hanh, who passed away January 22 at the age of 95, a number of Buddhist teachers, thinkers, centers, and organizations took to social media to offer tribute to the beloved teacher.

Nhat Hanh died in his home country of Vietnam at Tu Hieu Temple in the city of Hue. Known as “the father of mindfulness,” Nhat Hanh made a global impact as a teacher, author, activist, and founder of the Engaged Buddhism movement. Memorial services are being livestreamed by his practice community, Plum Village in the days to come.

Here, we’ve rounded up a selection of tributes shared by Buddhist teachers, centers, and organizations responding to news of his death. Plum Village is also sharing tribute posts and articles about Nhat Hanh’s death on their live blog.

A wonderful teacher. I was involved in a TNH group for many years, and led mindfulness days regularly.

Here's a summary of one of his best-known books -

If you want to be happy and at peace, you must learn to live in the present.

That’s where mindfulness comes in. And what better person to learn it from than Thich Nhat Hanh, a Zen master and world-famous spiritual leader. His book The Miracle of Mindfulness: An Introduction to the Practice of Meditation is your gateway to the wonders of living in the present.
