Throughout times of great challenge and suffering, Thay has taken refuge in walking meditation as spiritual medicine. During the Vietnamese-American War, he and his fellow practitioners practiced walking mindfulness to renew their energy and cultivate compassion as they worked for peace and rebuilt villages.
For Thay’s 94th continuation day, we invite you to carry on this legacy, taking the time to practice truly walking in freedom. We encourage you to recognize all the conditions of happiness that we have at our disposal, such as the seasons changing, the trees nourishing us, and the earth supporting our feet.
