The Art of Power



Thich Nhat Hanh challenges us to realize that genuine power comes only with a clear mind and a calm heart, and that when we are not in control of our own thoughts we are actually quite powerless, nothing more than slaves to our fears, emotions, and craving. When this happens, it is not we who possesses power; it is power that possesses us. He states boldly that every person is born with capacity to be free of fear, delusion, and tyranny, whether external or, just as important, internal. -Pritam Singh
