Plum Village, An Artist’s Journey contains two delightful and wise graphic stories drawn by Brother Phap Ban. As he explains in his introductory words, “These two stories were born in 2011, when Thay—the name we affectionately use for our Master Thich Nhat Hanh—asked us, at the end of one of his dharma teachings, to tell the story of our love for Plum Village with photos, poetry, videos, or narratives. … It came naturally to me to tell of my love for Plum Village through images.”
Brother Phap Ban gave permission to include some of the drawings in this issue of the Mindfulness Bell.
