Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh transforms an ancient folktale into a timeless parable. Born in rural Vietnam, Kinh Tam's beauty and intelligence were obvious to all. From an early age she was drawn to the teachings of Buddha and the rewards of a monastic life, but to please her family she agreed to marry. Throughout her marriage, Kinh Tam's mind was devoted to her husband, but her heart never wavered from her true calling. She wanted to be a monk. Yet Buddhism was still new to Vietnam and temples accepted only men for ordination. So Kinh Tam disguised herself as a man, and joined a monastery as a novice. Years of joy and peace passed until a local woman accused the novice of fathering her unborn child. Torn between two impossible choices, Kinh Tam faced the unbearable with the boundless heart of Buddha, and her choice forever changed her life, her country, and her faith.--From publisher description.… (més)

A devoted student and diligent worker at the Dharma Cloud Temple monastery, Kinh Tam is not who he appears to be. And yet the novice's true identity cannot be revealed without Kinh paying a terrible price.

To continue on the path to enlightenment, Kinh must suffer false accusations, physical hardship and public humiliation without complaint. With absolute grace, astounding compassion and unwavering resolve, the novice perseveres in the face of every challenge. Ultimately, Kinh Tam's moving fate will transform lives and offer hope for us all.

In these pages, Zen master, poet and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh retells an ancient Vietnamese folk tale, sharing Kinh's story as a teaching and proposing a real way of being in the the world that is utterly relevant now, in the twenty-first century.

This is a short book with a story of holy person who went through unfair treatment without retaliating. After this story, there follows the story of people in Vietnam who were helping those in need, but were persecuted for this. Their story follows that of the holy person in the book. The author of this book is one of those people, a monk, who went through those persecutions and was such a great influence on them. The story of the Novice is not an exciting tale, but especially when put together with the experiences of Thich Nhat Hanh, it has a powerful and lasting meaning for all of us. ( )

Unfortunately, not as interesting as the story could have been -- but I did enjoy the brief glimpses at monastic life. ( )
