When you have a stomach ache you don't tell your stomach to go away.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Some people live as though they are already dead. There are people moving around us who are consumed by their past, terrified of their future, and stuck in their anger and jealousy. They are not alive they are just walking corpses.
Nhat Hanh
Image
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
Image
There is no enlightenment outside of daily life.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Deep listening is the kind of listening that can help relieve the suffering of another person. You can call it compassionate listening. You listen with only one purpose: to help him or her to empty his heart.

In one sheet of paper, we see everything else, the cloud, the forest, the logger. I am, therefore you are. You are, therefore I am. That is the meaning of the word interbeing. We interare.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Go slowly, breathe and smile.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Real peace is not in power, money, or weapons, but in deep inner peace.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Happiness and suffering support each other. To be is to inter-be. It's like the left and the right. If the left is not there, the right cannot be there. The same is true with suffering and happiness, good and evil.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Smile, breathe and go slowly.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Breath is aligned with both body and mind and it alone can bring them together.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Today, you can decide to walk in freedom. You can choose to walk differently. You can walk as a free person, enjoying every step.
Nhat Hanh
Image
We are here to awaken from our illusion of separateness.
Nhat Hanh
Image
If we are not able to smile, then the world will not have peace.
Nhat Hanh
Image
Smiling is very important. If we are not able to smile, then the world will not have peace. It is not by going out for a demonstration against nuclear missiles that we can bring about peace. It is with our capacity of smiling, breathing, and being peace that we can make peace.
