THE SEEDLING PROJECT

Thay believed that Buddhism had much to contribute to real social change.

He said he would find ways to support me in a movement for social change according to the Buddhist spirit. He would help bring together many good hearts who wanted to work together. He agreed to write articles about this in national magazines and then start several pioneering development villages to show that social change could be based on love, commitment, and responsibility. Eventually we could start a training center for workers in education, agriculture, and health care, who would then go all over the country.“

Wake Up Spring Retreat // The Economics Of Happiness

THE ECONOMICS OF HAPPINESS

WAKE UP SPRING RETREAT

EUROPEAN INSTITUTE OF APPLIED BUDDHISM

16-23 MAY 2012

 

You, the richest person on Earth,

Who have been going around begging for a living,

Stop being the destitute child.

Come back and claim your heritage.

We should enjoy our happiness

And offer it to everyone.

Cherish this very moment.

Let go of the stream of distress

And embrace life fully in your arms.


- Thich Nhat Hanh (excerpt from Our True Heritage)
