Quotes of Wisdom
Thich Nhat Hanh 1926-present
A Vietnamese zen Buddhist monk and peace activist, nominated for the Nobel Peace prize by Martin Luther king jr. in 1967. Thay as he is affectionately known was refused entry into his native Vietnam also in 1967 and moved to France where he set up his plum village monastery, now home to over 150 monks and nuns. His numerous literary works include ‘peace in every step’ ‘the miracle of mindfulness’ and ‘old path white clouds’.
A truly extraordinary man who I personally had thought privilege to meet while at his plum village monastery, to sit in his presents was so calming, you didn’t feel nervous just completely loved. Thay has in recent times suffered from illness and has now been given permission I reside in his beloved Vietnam for his final days.

Dhamma Tāpasā* (Andrew Hallas)
Dhamma Tāpasā is a former Buddhist monk and is the spiritual name given to Andrew Hallas. Dhamma’s life has been shaped by trauma, deep inquiry, and years spent living simply in nature. After searching for answers through meditation, solitude, and spiritual practice, his understanding settled around a quiet truth. That our experience of life is created from the inside out, through thought. Through stories, reflections, The Quiet Space, and gentle one-to-one conversations, Dhamma now shares a grounded approach to mental well-being for those seeking clarity, peace of mind, and a deeper trust in themselves.
