We can be healing ourselves ... and participate in healing the world at the same time. This is the concept of inter being. Indeed we cannot do as much for the world if we are isolated. That we can heal, is one of Thay's messages - and how we can heal.
In my case it was a copy of The Path of Emancipation found in a Goodwill store eleven years ago. Thay had been recommended to me by a commenter-a Vietnam War veteran-on Huffington Post as I was reaching out during a very trying time in my journey. That seed has taken root in a very real way ever since. I sometimes feel concerned about lacking a Sangha in the strictest sense but have come to the realization that Sangha is what you make of it and is everywhere.
@@telebob5983 As a relative newcomer, my first and so best writing from this man is " Zen and the art of Saving the Planet " -wonderful - and as someone in Australia I'm wondering too about finding a sangha.
Unless jealousy hate and anger in oneself is recognized for what it is, and handled mindfully, compassion peace and tranquility remain a pipedream. Thanks for Sangha for sending a gentle reminder. 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for posting this gentle reminder. So very timely. It makes me smile hearing his voice and his teaching again in this video. Sending my loving thoughts and many blessings back to the sangha. Please take care! 🥹🙏🧡

As Usual Thay's Talks are wonderful. Therfore I thinke there is a mistake between the title of the question and the topic of Thay's answer. In the talk Thay did not mentioned about justice and anger
Dear Fabio, thank you for your comment. This video has been excerpted from a longer recording of a Q&A session where Thay answers questions from the audience as well as questions asked via the internet, like this one (there’s a card with it at the beginning of the video). Thay does not repeat the words in the question, but he does explain how we can react to the suffering (coming from injustice too) in the world by nourishing the peace in ourselves (not the anger). As he says, be peace first, so you can do peace later (and fight injustice). Hope this helps. We also wanted to keep true to the series and add at least part of the keywords of the questions in the titles also. These are indeed questions asked often and hopefully more people looking for answers will come this way and listen to Thay’s advice. With gratitude 🙏 plumvillage.app team
Very good observation. I would have missed such a beautiful moment. Thank you. I guess it's due to presence of a true master, such a great soul spread Peace and love everywhere and their vibrations make flowers bloom. There is eternal joy in their silence. 🙏
Being peace, beautiful. How to withstand the hatred around me so I can be peace ? I can't stand it the pressure around me, its great, it's like assault. Jesus went to the lonely places.
This feels like a fake question. Disingenuous. I don’t think people fight injustice because they’re driven by anger. I think people (who go to retreats and ask questions) fight injustice to justify their anger. But I think their anger comes from the same place mine does, the same place the other wretched sinners of this world get our anger: From our psyche, our unhealed wounds, our fear, etc.
I think the way I took the question was a bit different but still agree with what you said about the source of our anger. Sometimes when we become more involved and feel responsible for the state of the world around us, we want to help make positive change but become angry when others do not respond the way we hope for or we see more unjustices or hate around us and it is frustrating because we feel powerless or like we are not ever going to be able to change the world and ourselves for the better. We must heed this advice from him here and be compassionate and heal ourselves so when we go out into the world and try to heal others, we are not dealing with our own internal sicknesses or we will not be able to help as we would like to. Much love ❤️
His voice, his words, his presence, the tone of his voice. Everything about him provides healing. He is the best.
His presence is very contagious. ❤
Once we heal ourselves, we can heal the world.
We can be healing ourselves ... and participate in healing the world at the same time. This is the concept of inter being. Indeed we cannot do as much for the world if we are isolated. That we can heal, is one of Thay's messages - and how we can heal.
How do you feel about this statement now?
Thank you for posting this. We as a nation really need healing seeing all these mass shootings and Thay's teachings is the medicine for the mind
My first book of TNH was Peace Is Every Step. 25 years ago. He has had such a big and beautiful effect on my life.
Thank you for sharing dear friend.

@@plumvillageapp Thank you! 🙏 I will try - I am always inspired by Thay's and the monastics' dharma talks to keep trying in the practice💜
We fail many times before we succeed! Just one of the many challenges we will overcome on this journey ❤

Doctor,heal thyself first.... SW.jesus

When someone continually bullies snd abuses you, you fight back..🙏
This is correct. You have to control the anger though cause no one fights well when they’re angry.

I feel the same way. I hope you are able to find some peace. It is hard. I hope it gets easier for you.

@@BeastxxWarPeople only want to control the external cause they can’t control themselves.
I think you're wrong. There are definitely people who fight injustice due to righteous anger.
Well mr hahn missed the second coming.
Men will prevail.
