These include: "Dear one, I am really there for you" "Dear one, I know that you are there, and I am really happy about it" "Dear one, I know that you are suffering, and that is why I am here for you" and "Dear one, I am suffering, please help me." In the concluding section of the book, Thich Nhat Hanh explains how love can help us to heal our own pain, fear, and negativity. He goes on to offer a mantra practice for generating love that consists of expressing four key statements or intentions in our relationships. In True Love he offers readers the technique of conscious breathing as a method for synchronizing the mind and body to establish the conditions of love. In order to love in a real way, Thich Nhat Hanh explains, we need to learn how to be fully present in our lives. In his characteristically direct, simple, and compassionate style, he explores the four key aspects of love as described in the Buddhist tradition: lovingkindness, compassion, joy, and freedom. In this little treasure, Thich Nhat Hanh offers a Buddhist view of love along with techniques for manifesting it in our daily lives.
