Original Air Date: May 7, 2018

Thich Nhat Hanh, the Buddhist monk, author and Nobel Peace Prize nominee, sits down with Oprah to discuss his dedication to mindful meditation and his legacy of nonviolent opposition to the Vietnam War. In 1966, the spiritual leader met with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and urged him to publicly denounce the Vietnam War. After the meeting, Dr. King nominated Nhat Hanh for the Nobel Peace Prize, saying, “His ideas for peace, if applied, would build a monument to ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity.” Nhat Hanh also explains how to practice “compassionate listening,” which he believes will help ease suffering, end wars and change the world for the better. Thich Nhat Hanh passed away on January 22, 2022 at the age of 95.
