AbstractThich Nhat Hanh's experiences as a novice monk in central Vietnam. As a young man,he tested Buddhist teachings and planted the seeds that would carry him through the ordeals of the Vietnam War. The simplicity and clarity of monastic life is the background against which the memorable characters in this Buddhist master's life are lovingly presented:the elderly cook,the Master sewing by lamplight,the daring lizard who eats rice offered for the Buddha, the young French soldier seeking understanding,and others. Two weeks ago,after the Buddha's offering,I approached the shrine to put out the flame of two white candles that rested in tall brass candle holders when I saw a small lizard leap out of the alms bowl. He had a couple of grains of rice in his mouth. He looked at me in panic,his eyes as bright as tiny crystal balls. I didn't chase him,but he ran off behind the statue of Buddha.
