Thich Nhat Hanh, a gentle monk from Viet Nam, who worked on the Paris Peace Accords to end that war. As a result, he was exiled from his homeland for decades.
He established Plum Village in France.
He implemented what has been called Engaged Buddhism, wrote many books, was a teacher above all.
His book, Peace in Every Step, had a profound impact on my life.
