Meditation is not to avoid society; it is to look deep to have the kind of insight you need to take action. To think that it is just to sit down and enjoy the calm and peace, is wrong.
Nhat HanhContemplate to see that awakened people, while not being enslaved by the work of serving living beings, never abandon their work of serving living beings.
Nhat HanhTake my hand. We will walk. We will only walk. We will enjoy our walk without thinking of arriving anywhere.
Nhat HanhMaybe we have enough technology to save the planet but it is not enough because the people are not ready.
Nhat Hanh
