“If you pursue meditation with a non-competitive attitude, with a hopeful and helpful attitude, without violence, then you will find that you will become a very benign and powerful being, one who is at peace with himself and the universe.” IfsUniversePowerfulAttitudeMeditationViolenceBuddhismPursueHopefulHelpfulBenign Author:Frederick Lenz
“[Thich Nhat Hanh] the one that revolutionized Buddhism. Instead of being monks just engaged in meditation, it was active Buddhism. You went out and felt the ills of the community around you. Instead of retreating to a monastery, you were out in the streets working. And he's been a great help to me, just reading his book, so I don't feel helpless about what I can do about all the violence around me.” FeelsI CanBookHelpingReadingFeltCan DoCommunityMeditationViolenceStreetsBuddhismActiveEngagedHelplessMonkMonasteriesThich Nhat Hanh Author:Sandra Cisneros
