Product Description
With a rhythmic, meditative tone, the words of The Noble Wilds flow gracefully along the pages, complemented by the luminous photos of God s creations in nature. Turning the pages, one is transported to Amoura, the place where the lady lives and is visited by cherished beings of the wild. The lady is none other than Supreme Master Ching Hai, and The Noble Wilds is yet another of Her simple but deeply touching gifts. Written, photographed and compiled personally by Master, this precious gem opens the door to a world of unique beauty. Here, the reader can witness firsthand the noble spirit and dedication of our co-inhabitants whose homes are under the open sky the swan, the goose, the squirrel, the beaver and even a tiny garden snail. Although generally shy of humans, these animals allow themselves to be photographed, and indeed can even be seen eagerly approaching the lady s gentle offering of favorite foods. The love conveyed is unlike any other full of dignity and grace, yet as deep and enduring as the eternal. Printing ink is made of soybean to protect environment.

5 out of 5 stars Deep in my heart!   June 28, 2008
The Noble Wilds shows the deep nature of animals. Through this book, we come to know for instance that the swans have uncondicional love towards their babies, just like humans do.They forget about themselves and sacrifice 24/7 for the sake of their kids until they can live on their own. And that touched me so much!


Thank you, Lady (Supreme Master Ching Hai), for sharing with us these unique moments you have spent with our noble co-inhabitants, so that we can realize humans and animals are indeed so much alike, all children of God!



1 out of 5 stars Review of "The Noble Wilds"   June 12, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Not really what I expected. Pretty simplistic commentary accompanying several pictures of "the Wilds". Peaceful and serene, but not really enlightening at all. It looks as if the Supreme Master lives in a beautiful place surrounded by the glory of nature, and I do respect her reverence for life in all forms, and the interrelationship between all of us and the earth. Again though, I did not find this book inspiring in any way, and was rather disappointed by it.


5 out of 5 stars Marvelous book!   June 5, 2008
The Noble Wilds touches my heart to see how our feathery animal friends can be so lovely, considerate and protective towards their partner and children; such a humanly behavior. It also makes me treasure our Mother Nature magnificent works even more! Great book with beautiful photos and in simple English! The Noble Wilds


5 out of 5 stars "the truth"   May 30, 2008
Wow, this is what I can say. Her words are truly precious wisdom. I read over and over again. It opens me up to a new concept of life. The wonderful animals are like us. Why can't we share our world with them as another co-habitant? I strongly suggest to readers.


5 out of 5 stars Our connection with Nature   May 27, 2008
I am a Professional Speaker and Trainer who LOVES to garden! On the weekend I planted many geraniums. Usually, every fall I take cuttings from the summer geraniums and put them in soil to root for planting in the spring. One of the geraniums I planted had many blossoms on it but it was extraordinary - some blossoms are pink and some are orange. I have never seen this before. Usually a geranium simply displays one colour of blossom. I thought to myself that this phenomenon in my garden was indeed nature being truly miraculous.
At the beginning of one of our distance learning classes, I told the class about the miraculous geranium. I then mentioned to them that we human beings "are also nature". We come from nature and are part of everything magical on this planet. The students agreed. We teach folks how to be business and life coaches. Then I said "If a geranium in nature can produce such a gorgeous miracle then surely we as human beings can also produce such miracles within ourselves." Once again, the students agreed. In fact, one student was quite overwhelmed with joy because I believe that she had almost given up on some of the people in her life. The geranium story gave her hope that the people around her could indeed change their "colours" and be more noble human beings.

When I read Master Ching Hai's book The Noble Wilds, I cried with a deep sense of love surging from my heart. This amazing woman who is a great spiritual teacher, artist and humanitarian is showing us that these precious creatures of the wild, just like the magical geranium, are indeed our best friends. They are to be cherished. Through Her book Master Ching Hai has taught me how to reconnect with the animals in the wild. I talk to the birds in my garden now. I don't even care if the neighbours hear me! Even the delightful little green lizards stop and listen to me thanking them for bringing so much happiness to our garden. I tell them that their babies are safe in our garden because we do our best to not kill any living being in our garden.

The bottom line of this review is that nature is astonishing in its teachings. All we need to do is open our hearts and minds to listen to the flowers, birds and all creatures - to breathe in the love that they so willingly share and then breathe out that love to bring more peace and safety to this planet.
