More quotes by Nhat Hanh
Hope is important because it can make the present moment less difficult to bear. If we believe that tomorrow will be better, we can bear a hardship today.
Nhat Hanh
When we have peace, then we have a chance to save the planet. But if we are not united in peace, if we do not practice mindful consumption, we cannot save our planet.
Nhat Hanh
Are we treating our body kindly by the way we eat, by the way we drink, by the way we work? Are we treating ourselves with enough joy and tenderness and peace? Or are we feeding ourselves with toxins that we get from the market - the spiritual, intellectual, entertainment market?
Nhat Hanh
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
May all beings learn how to nourish themselves with joy each day.
Nhat Hanh
Though we all have the fear and the seeds of anger within us, we must learn not to water those seeds and instead nourish our positive qualities - those of compassion, understanding, and loving kindness.
Nhat Hanh
Mindfulness helps you go home to the present. And every time you go there and recognize a condition of happiness that you have, happiness comes.
Nhat Hanh
If you truly get in touch with a piece of carrot, you get in touch with the soil, the rain, the sunshine. You get in touch with Mother Earth and eating in such a way, you feel in touch with true life, your roots, and that is meditation. If we chew every morsel of our food in that way we become grateful and when you are grateful, you are happy.
Nhat Hanh
Choose to be in touch with what is wonderful, refreshing, and healing within yourself and around you.
Nhat Hanh

Nhat Hanh
Breathe and you dwell in the here and now, breath and you see impermanence is life.
Nhat Hanh
At the moment of waking up, before getting out of bed, get in touch with your breath
Nhat Hanh
The most important thing that we can do for the healing of our world is to hear inside ourselves, the sounds of the earth crying.
Nhat Hanh
The miracle is not to walk on water, or in the air, or on burning charcoal. The miracle is to walk on earth. You breathe in, you become aware of the fact that you are alive. You are alive and you are walking on this beautiful planet. The greatest of of all miracles is to be alive.
Nhat Hanh
An emotion is only an emotion. It's just a small part of your whole being. You are much more than your emotion. An emotion comes, stays for a while, and goes away, just like a storm. If you're aware of that, you won't be afraid of your emotions.
Nhat Hanh
There is no enlightenment outside of daily life.
Nhat Hanh
Nonviolent action, born of the awareness of suffering and nurtured by love, is the most effective way to confront adversity.
Nhat Hanh
Each time you take a mindful step you are back in the arms of Mother Earth and are reminded of your true sweet home in the here and now.
Nhat Hanh
When someone does not know how to handle his own suffering, one allows it to spill all over the people around him or her. When you suffer, you make people around you suffer. That's very natural. This is why we have to learn how to handle our suffering, so we won't spread it everywhere.
Nhat Hanh
Working for peace in the future is to work for peace in the present moment.
