Before practicing meditation, we see that mountains are mountains. When we start to practice, we see that mountains are no longer mountains. After practicing a while, we see that mountains are again mountains. Now the mountains are very free. Our mind is still with the mountains, but it is no longer bound to anything.
Nhat HanhYou are like fireworks. You go out into your children, your friends, your society, and the whole world.
Nhat HanhOur life is a manifestation, and we can very well make that manifestation beautiful and meaningful and have a good influence.
Nhat Hanh
