Dear Community,
Thay has taught us, to love is to understand. To understand ourselves is to love ourselves and to love and understand ourselves is to love and understand the world, for Thay has also taught us, the self is made entirely of non-self-elements. We are the world. If we turn our mindfulness and concentration upon ourselves, we realize immediately that our self is the world. We gain the great insight of Interbeing, with all beings and with the whole of being.
We come together to cultivate the mind of love, love of self, of each other, of all beings, of the whole of being. This is our practice and we are a community dedicated to realizing and sharing the fruit of this insight. I look forward to practicing with you.
