Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: We should practice so that we can see Muslims as Hindus and Hindus as Muslims. We should practice so that we can see Israelis as Palestinians and Palestinians as Israelis. We should practice until we can see that each person is us, that we are not separate from others. . . . This is the teaching of non-self, of interbeing. — Thich Nhat Hanh (1926–2022)

You only need to dwell peacefully in your in-breath and out-breath for a short while, and you will begin to restore stability and peace within yourself. ~Tich Nhat Hanh @LowlandZen.bsky.social
Some say that Zen is too simple to make a real difference.
Trust the process.
“You only need to dwell peacefully in your in-breath and out-breath for a short while, and you will begin to restore stability and peace within yourself.”
~Tich Nhat Hanh

Meditation is being aware of what's going on: in your body, in your feelings, in your mind, and in the world. ~Tich Nhat Hanh @LowlandZen.bsky.social
This past week has been a tough one; I’ve had a close relative spend time in hospital to undergo an operation, and another who resides in the Middle East has been subject to some pretty frightening circumstances.
Meditation has been my refuge.

Here’s my newest Substack essay, recounting what we can learn from the time that the Buddha stopped a war. It’s a good time to remember that, as Thich Nhat Hanh said, there is no way to peace, peace is the way.
Would love to have you subscribe!

#KairaJewelLingo cites #PlumVillage wisdom: #Compassion is the best protection. When we...return to our bodies & allow ourselves to feel what has been unfelt, something shifts. We become more present. More human. Less reactive. Compassion becomes less an idea, more a lived protection. bit.ly/406mofC
This morning’s practice was a beautiful guided meditation offered by @brspirit.bsky.social via the Plum Village App.
Thank you for sharing Brother 🙏🏼

Zen circle with caption: Our aim is to transform the suffering in our heart, and to offer happiness to our family and those around us. Our happiness multiplies exponentially when we see that we can bring happiness to those around us. ~Tich Nhat Hanh
Transforming our own suffering has the immense benefit of positively transforming the lives of those around us; when we model this inner work, we implicitly empower others around us to do the same.

Zen circle with caption inside that’s reads: We should live our daily life in such a way that the living Dharma inhabits us in every moment. Brushing our teeth, taking a shower, cooking our breakfast—we do these things so that the living Dharma is with us all the time. ~Tich Nhat Hanh
I practice mindfulness whilst washing my hands at work. Those extra moments spent handwashing are a great way to ground yourself, and not get swept up with the hustle & bustle, or workplace drama.

Stopping is the basic Buddhist practice of meditation. You stop running. You stop struggling. You allow yourself to rest, to heal, to calm. - Thich Nhat Hanh

An image of bare woodland trees; there is a carpet of dry crisp leaves on the ground.
Today I am reminded, that although the leaf falls from the tree, the same leaf transforms on the ground to provide nourishment to the tree.

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That's the message he is sending. — Thich Nhat Hanh (1926–2022)

“Why do we commit ourselves to only one idea of happiness? If we let go of that idea, happiness will come to us from every direction."

Find happines in simple things; raindrops in a stream, a warm sunrise, or slowing washing your hands.
