Nhat HanhTo take good care of yourself and to take good care of living beings and of the environment is the best way to love God.
Nhat HanhMeditation is, first of all, a tool for surveying our territory so we can know what is going on. With the energy of mindfulness, we can calm things down, understand them, and bring harmony back to the conflicting elements inside us.
Nhat HanhBy living deeply in the present moment we can understand the past better & prepare for a better future.
Nhat HanhThe healing of ourselves is the healing of the whole nation. Society is only a manifestation of our collective consciousness and our collective consciousness has a lot of fear, violence and hatred in it. ... It is possible to transform our heart...Not much time is needed...(the transformation can be born) the moment you vow to go in the direction of peace and service.
