Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Discourse on the Eight Realizations of the Great Beings

Quelqu’un m’a demandé: N’es-tu pas inquiet
face à l’état du monde? J’ai pris le temps de respirer, puis j’ai répondu: Ce qui est le plus important, c’est de ne pas laisser votre anxiété envahir votre cœur. Si votre cœur est rempli d’anxiété, vous tomberez malade, et vous ne pourrez pas aider… Nous nous inquiétons pour nous, notre famille, amis, travail, et l’état du monde. Si nous laissons l’inquiétude submerger notre cœur, tôt ou tard, nous tomberons malades.

“To think in terms of either pessimism or optimism oversimplifies the truth. The problem is to see reality as it is.”

– Thich Nhat Hanh

Captured thoughts on March delights in my life, which are there even through all the what's-is exploding around us. https://biketoworkbarb.blogspot.com/2025/03/march-delights.html

A kind reminder from Thich Nhat Hahn.
So far i agree with alsmost everything he says, i didn't really notice esoteric bs. It's more a philosophy.
I just don't agree with his view on perpetrators and pirates.
What i like about Buddhism - the critical approach.
Continued quote:
"...the kind of faith we cannot lose, because it is not based on ideas or beilefs but on experienced reality"

A veces la no acción es violencia. Si tú les permites a otros destruir o matar, si no estás haciendo nada al respecto, tú estás implicado en esa violencia. Entonces la violencia puede ser acción o no acción.

People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.

— Thich Nhat Hanh

The ocean of suffering is immense,
but if you turn around,
you can see the land.

—Thích Nhất Hạnh

"Earth is not something separate and outside of us. We are Earth and Earth is us. To lessen the suffering of myself is to lessen the suffering of Earth."

What Christiana Figueres thinks the climate movement can learn from Buddhism

"Figueres, the architect of the 2015 Paris climate agreement, has been helping people around the world understand the teachings of Buddhist monk and peace activist Thích Nhất Hạnh."

"The understanding expressed here is rooted in what I saw from #ThichNhatHanh as a kid. He encouraged me to keep looking into Jesus’s teachings, even though I was furious with “#Christianity” and the damage it had caused. I felt hurt, betrayed, and abused by the lies that had been told for thousands of years. But I kept looking, and over time, I began to see that #Jesus wasn’t at all like the version that been sold to us." https://www.facebook.com/BuddhaGangBodhisattva/posts/pfbid0hg6iDrECkjsThhZiyuWMMuC14oLCZ3CDwTiHPun49kgmMe2qBGHUjZnZ9yRS4Hzl #PlumVillage #BuddhaGang @buddhagang @plumvillage

Je viens de terminer "La colère - Transformer son énergie en sagesse" de Thich Nhat Hanh. J'y ai trouvé des idées intéressantes mais rien qui mérite ses 200 pages.
En réalité, il aurait pu être beaucoup plus court et plus intéressant. Alors que là il est dilué dans un amas gélatineux de vulgarisation à la guimauve. Dommage.
Je ne regrette pas de l'avoir lu pour autant.
Bonne journée à toustes !

I refuse to give away my happiness, my hope, my inner peace

"Someone asked me, 'Aren't you worried about the state of the world?' I allowed myself to breathe and then I said, 'What is most important is not to allow your anxiety about what happens in the world to fill your heart. If your heart is filled with anxiety, you will get sick, and you will not be able to help."

Thich Nhat Hanh

Je continue toujours mon voyage dans le #zen. Après son original chinois (chan), c'est la version vietnamienne (Thiên) qui m'intéresse avec "Le silence foudroyant" de #ThichNhatHanh qui présente le soutra de la maîtrise du serpent puis le soutra du diamant. Ici, on revient systématiquement vers l'enseignement du Bouddha avec toujours l' idée de ne pas s'enfermer dans l'enseignement du Bouddha qui est comparé à un serpent et les concepts avec le Diamant qui coupe l'illusion.

"Homage to Shakyamuni Buddha
whose vows and compassion inspire us.
I am determined to cultivate only thoughts
that increase trust and love,
to use my hands to perform only deeds
that build community,
to speak only words of harmony and aid."

- Thich Nhat Hanh, from "A Prayer for Peace" in the book of poems "Call Me By My True Names"

"Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.”

– Thich Nhat Hanh
