A profound sermon, and a fuller understanding of the idea of resurrection. Thich Nhat Hang, Zen monk "I think there's a way of training ourselves in order not to become the victim of fear and grief- that is to look deeply into ourselves and to see that we are made of non-self elements. And when we look around ourselves, we can recognize ourselves in the non-self elements, like a father looking at his children can see himself in his children, can see his continuation in his children. So he is not attached to the idea that his body is the only thing that is him. He's more than his body.He is inside of his body but he is also at the same (time) outside of his body in many elements. And if we have the habit of looking like that we will not be the victim of our attachment to one form of manifestation, and we will be free. And that freedom makes happiness and peace possible. Other than meditation is there any specific practicer that can help you come to this understanding? Yes. The Buddha advised us to bear in mind that everything is impermanent, that nothing has an absolute entity that remains the same. And when we keep that insight in mind, we can see more deeply into the nature of reality, and we will not be locked in the notion that we are only this body, this life span is the only life span we have. In fact, because nothing can be by itself alone, no one can be by himself or herself alone, everyone has to inter-be with envy one else. That is why, when you look outside, around, you can see yourself. And when you look into yourself, you can see the outside. So that is a training.” George Holcombe geowanda1@me.com<mailto:geowanda1@me.com> "Whatever the problem, community is the answer. There is no power greater than a community discovering what it cares about."
