In the Vietnamese Zen tradition, mindfully chosen music and words can serve as "soothing droplets" to cool the heart. Recorded on location at Plum Village, Drops of Emptiness invites listeners into the sanctuary of this practice. These deeply felt works include the poetry of Thich Nhat Hanh, the Vietnamese folk songs and Buddhist hymns of Sister Chan Khong, and chants performed by the monks and nuns of Plum Village. An opportunity to share in musical contemplations rarely heard outside the seclusion of this cherished Zen monastery.
