If I succeed in loving you, I will be able to love everyone and all species on Earth... This is the real message of love
Nhat HanhDo we need to make a special effort to enjoy the beauty of the blue sky? Do we have to practice to be able to enjoy it? No, we just enjoy it. Each second, each minute of our lives can be like this. Wherever we are, any time, we have the capacity to enjoy the sunshine, the presence of each other, even the sensation of our breathing. We don't need to go to China to enjoy the blue sky. We don't have to travel into the future to enjoy our breathing. We can be in touch with these things right now.
Nhat HanhBuddhism has to do with your daily life, with your suffering and with the suffering of the people around you.
