    A world government should be comprised of spiritualists, yogis, artists, writers, buddhists, ethical philosophers, poets, uncompromising doctors, nurses, farmers, gardeners, mothers, fathers, children, animals, vets, conscientious builders and so forth. Non of the world leaders of today deserves such a position.

    I am only a recent student to the Buddhist way of life- but the words this man speaks transcend faith and religion. This is the beautiful art of being human and to embrace being human.

    Have you ever noticed how the tone, calmness, and vibration of individuals like this are all the same? People who are fully present, when they are present, sound like this. Listen for it so you know who is really here.

      I totally agree. He is a true Buddha in our modern society. According to Sogyal Rinpoche, who is the author of the well-known book named "The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying", becoming a Buddha is not becoming a superman with magical abilties, but a true, genuine person.

    As a Christian, I don't think any other religion comes quite as close to the kind of love and harmony that Jesus preached than Buddhism. I may disagree with a number of their thoughts on spirituality, but the emphasis on peace, love, and care for all those around you and for your own self as well is beautiful.

The dharma is a very important part of my life and now his. so the program in respect to THich would be very important to us. THe temple is only 15 misn from us in webster/friendswood texas.

    One sutra beseems to draw from is the Heart Sutra which he's translated before he died which is used by my lama because he thinks it's one of the best translations. It is on Plum Village's website. The sutra comes from Nagarjuna's school Madhyamaka which he wrote several treatises on particularly 37 practices of a Bodhisattva. A book also well loved across the Mahayana path is The Way of the Bodhisattva by Shantideva, an absolute luminary who taught the book in one sitting and dropped the mic at Nalanda. Thich Nhat Hanh is also a prolific author and translator, so there is lots to learn from this teacher, but I also recommend finding a sangha with a legitimate lineage like Plum Village.
    om mani padme hum may we realize nature of mind and bring all sentient beings without exception to that state. Bodhichitta is precious, may it arise in who it has not arisen and once arisen may it not diminish, but ever grow and flourish!

    Very educative. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.

    To chant Buddha is to plant "good roots and good fortune", and its merits and virtues are inconceivable.
    There are ten specific benefits of reciting "Amitabha Buddha" regularly, as follows:
    1. Automatically realize every thought of your own heart, every cell of your body, and make yourself in a state of peace and happiness.
    2. A single Buddha’s name can make us let go of all karmic conditions, recite single-mindedness, recite emptiness, and eliminate distracting thoughts.
    3. Reciting "Amitabha Buddha" allows us to mention "contemplation", to connect with the highest wisdom of life in the universe; to communicate with the instinct of the self, and to bring out the potential of human beings.
    Fourth, reciting "Amitabha Buddha" allows us to communicate with the Buddha, that is, the mind is a Buddha, that is, the body is a Buddha; not confused, not delusional, not stupid; away from mistakes and inversions.
    5. Reciting "Amitabha Buddha" can enable us to recite the goodness of our nature and achieve perfection; the pure and good nature of others can also be brought out.
    6. Reciting "Amitabha Buddha" can eliminate evil and cut off bad thoughts, and it is also effective for others; it can stop others' evil thoughts and evil actions, and eliminate demons and evils.
    7. Reciting "Amitabha Buddha" can eliminate omissions and suffering; comprehensive thinking and empathy; all six sense organs, self and others.
    Eight, reciting "Amitabha" can recite transcendence, recite light; recite immeasurable and boundless enlightenment and sobriety.
    9. Reciting "Amitabha Buddha" can recall that the self-nature embraces all things in the universe, illuminates the entire space of the dharma world, and all the dharmas.
    10. Reciting "Amitabha Buddha" can have full precepts, concentration, and wisdom; awakening, righteousness, and purity; all actions and aspirations are fulfilled, and merit is achieved. .
