Text Quotes
Through my love for you, I want to express my love for the whole cosmos, the whole of humanity, and all beings. By living with you, I want to learn to love everyone and all species. 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 Hanh Quotes) When we walk like (we are rushing), we print anxiety and sorrow on the earth. We have to walk in a way that we only print peace and serenity on the earth... Be aware of the contact between your feet and the earth. Walk as if you are kissing the earth with your feet  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) The present moment is filled with joy and happiness. If you are attentive, you will see it. (21)  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) Awareness is like the sun. When it shines on things, they are transformed  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) You are what you want to become. Why search anymore? You are a wonderful manifestation. The whole universe has come together to make your existence possible. There is nothing that is not you. The kingdom of God, the Pure Land, nirvana, happiness, and liberation are all you  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) Every morning, when we wake up, we have twenty-four brand-new hours to live. What a precious gift! We have the capacity to live in a way that these twenty-four hours will bring peace, joy, and happiness to ourselves and others  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) Do not be idolatrous about or bound to any doctrine, theory, or ideology, even Buddhist ones. All systems of thought are guiding means; they are not absolute truth  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) To love our enemy is impossible. The moment we understand our enemy, we feel compassion towards him/her, and he/she is no longer our enemy  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) With mindfulness - the practice of peace - we can begin by working to transform the wars in ourselves. Conscious breathing helps us do this  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) We inter-breath with the rain forests, we drink from the oceans. They are part of our own body  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) It is possible to live happily in the here and now. So many conditions of happiness are available-more than enough for you to be happy right now. You don’t have to run into the future in order to get more  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) It is possible that the next Buddha will not take the form of an individual. The next Buddha may take the form of a community -a community practicing understanding and loving kindness, a community practicing mindful living. This may be the most important thing we can do for the survival of the earth  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) We have the Statue of Liberty on the East Coast. But in the name of freedom, people have done a lot of damage. I think we have to build a Statue of Responsibility on the West Coast in order to counterbalance. Because liberty without responsibility is not true liberty. We are not free to destroy  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) We may think of peace as the absence of war, that if the great powers would reduce their weapons arsenals, we could have peace. But if we look deeply into the weapons, we will see our own minds - our own prejudices, fears, and ignorance  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) The source of a true smile is an awakened mind. Smiling helps you approach the day with gentleness and understanding  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) In every country in the world, killing human beings is condemned. The Buddhist precept of non-killing extends even further, to include all living beings  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) You carry Mother Earth within you. She is not outside of you. Mother Earth is not just your environment. In that insight of inter-being, it is possible to have real communication with the Earth, which is the highest form of prayer  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) Even if we cannot be completely non-voilent, by being vegetarian we are going in the direction of non-voilence  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) We fear that this moment will end, that we won’t get what we need, that we will lose what we love, or that we will not be safe. Often, our biggest fear is the knowledge that one day our bodies will cease functioning. So even when we are surrounded by all the conditions for happiness, our joy is not complete  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) Fear, separation, hate and anger come from the wrong view that you and the Earth are two separate entities, the Earth is only the environment. You are in the centre and you want to do something for the Earth in order for you to survive. That is a dualistic way of seeing  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) I hold my face in my two hands. No, I am not crying. I hold my face in my two hands to keep the loneliness warm - two hands protecting, two hands nourishing, two hands preventing my soul from leaving me in anger  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) If we are not happy, if we are not peaceful, we cannot share peace and happiness with others, even those we love, those who live under the same roof. If we are peaceful, if we are happy, we can smile and blossom like a flower, and everyone in our family, our entire society, will benefit from our peace  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) Life is filled with suffering, but it is also filled with many wonders, like the blue sky, the sunshine, the eyes of a baby. To suffer is not enough. We must also be in touch with the wonders of life. They are within us and all around us, everywhere, any time  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) The way you speak to others can offer them joy, happiness, self-confidence, hope, trust, and enlightenment. Mindful speaking is a deep practice  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) The secret to happiness is happiness itself. Wherever we are, any time, we have the capacity to enjoy the sunshine, the presence of each other, the wonder of our breathing. We don’t have to travel anywhere else to do so. We can be in touch with these things right now  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) In Zen Buddhism, the greater your doubt, the greater will be your enlightenment. That is why doubt can be a good thing. If you are too sure, if you always have conviction, then you may be caught in your wrong perception for a long time  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) Everything inside and around us wants to reflect itself in us. We don’t have to go anywhere to obtain the truth. We only need to be still and things will reveal themselves in the still water of our heart  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) To develop understanding, you have to practice looking at all living things with the eyes of compassion.  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) There are some people who eat an orange but don’t really eat it. They eat their sorrow, fear, anger, past, and future.  (Nhat Hanh Quotes) Fear, separation, hate and anger come from the wrong view that you and the Earth are two separate entities, the Earth is only the environment. You are in the centre, and you want to do something for the Earth in order for you to survive.  (Nhat Hanh Quotes)
