Through mindfulness practices like breathing meditation, people can learn to truly experience and appreciate each moment, including the smiles of children. Nhat Hanh became a monk at age 16 and founded "engaged Buddhism," calling for peace during the Vietnam War. He met Martin Luther King Jr. in the 1960s and influenced King's views against the war.
