To 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 HanhFor things to reveal themselves to us, we need to be ready to abandon our views about them.
Nhat HanhIf we are too busy, if we are carried away every day by our projects, our uncertainty, our craving, how can we have the time to stop and look deeply into the situation-our own situation, the situation of our beloved one, the situation of our family and of our community, and the situation of our nation and of the other nations?
Nhat HanhWhen you climb a ladder and arrive on the sixth step and you think that is the highest, then you cannot come to the seventh. So the technique is to abandon the sixth in order for the seventh step to be possible. And this is our practice, to release our views. The practice of nonattachment to views is at the heart of the Buddhist practice of meditation.
