This is beautiful. Half of me sees the oceans restored to aliveness (so much better than static blue). And half of me sees the geopolitical history in these currents 🙃

Our summer retreat is now open for all Wake Up’ers around the world to join :) join us for a 3 day retreat just outside of London here, August 4-7: tickettailor.com/events/wakeupl…
Warm-heartedness is not blind when it is combined with intelligence. We view behaviour as harsh or gentle largely on the basis of appearances, but the real distinction depends on the motivation with which it is done.
No feel, no heal
“When you walk you surrender yourself totally to the present moment. In this way each step becomes a healer.” —@thichnhathanh youtu.be/JNwcPec1qLY

"A war takes a long time to happen. The seeds of this war were planted many years ago. Do not think that what you are doing is insignificant. You are planting seeds of peace to prevent future wars." - Sister Annabel
Dear friends, we invite you to join us for half an hour of sitting meditation today at 1.30 as part of the demonstrations in central London - all welcome. We will gather at the foot of the museum steps. Any changes/updates will be posted here: tinyurl.com/peacesit6march
"The Vietnam War was no different from other wars, all of them are due to our lack of right thinking, right view. We are dominated by fear and anger and do not understand our own suffering or that of the enemy." ~ Thich Nhat Hanh plumvillage.org/about/thich-nh…
All wars bring suffering 💔 The task now for all of us with our thoughts, speech and action, is to do everything possible to de-escalate, de-escalate, de-escalate. More weapons = more suffering #Ukraine

The poem Recommendation was written by Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay) during the Vietnam war. His life and the lives of his students were at risk on a daily basis. Yet this poem encourages insight, compassion and forgiveness. Read more: plumvillage.org/articles/blog/…

"True strength & power are held by those pursuing the path of peace." In my former lives I researched 20thC history and then worked in political news. Tonight's koan is: de-escalate, de-escalate, de-escalate #UkraineRussia

This is what brave nonviolent de-escalation looks like: people walking into the path of tanks, unarmed
This is the language of peace and it is powerful

Do not underestimate the power of remaining calm in a boat in the midst of a storm. With peace in your heart you can be a refuge for others beset with uncertainty and fear. This is engaged Buddhism—what we need now more than ever. #peaceforukraine

Great thread on Apple’s recent attempt to soothe our consumerist unease
Apple’s Mother Nature ad can be seen from a certain angle as a light-hearted, endearing – even if cringe – effort to show us that they indeed care about people, about forests, about the planet. It’s kind of an ethical status report for Gen Z.
Here are the "Love Letters to the Earth" that Thich Nhat Hanh wrote, and many other contemplations that can support us to develop the insight of interbeing with Moter Nature: mother-nature.org

Language is only meaningful if it is grounded in experience, and really, the experience of the body. (ChatGPT has none)
@brspirituality It could be helpful to offer tiers of engagement. For example, for those just casually interested in learning more, only watch the live material (45 min/week). For those looking to go deeper and apply the practices personally and professionally, 2 hours/week.
Building an online course — probably 10-12 weeks What’s the best thinking on hours per week? How many hours per week would you engage with? (Mix of pre-recorded and live content)

@dan_hallett Yes! being real with ourselves about how we’re feeling is a crucial step - much better than covering up those feelings. Perhaps not feeling good can lead to action. But also possible to learn to feel ok *with* not feeling ok, and from that peace comes another kind of action
One day interbeing will appear on the OED new words list I just know it. And that will be a good day. And an evolutionary inflection point for our society, as we evolve our thinking from conceptualizing everything as separately existent “entities” to seeing only “inter-beings”
The time @thichnhathanh proposed to replace the the verb ‘to-be’ with the verb ‘to inter-be’ as a better fit for representing the living interconnected reality of life. This proposal hasn’t made it to the dictionary yet - but we hope in the future…📖 🙏

"By the way we live our daily life we contribute to peace or to war. It is mindfulness that can tell me that I am going in the direction of war and it is the energy of mindfulness that can help me to make a turn and to go in the direction of peace." - Thich Nhat Hanh #peace
Putin and his oligarch friends don't want you to see these images. Participating in an anti-war march in an authoritarian country is no small thing. It requires enormous courage. These very brave people deserve our respect and gratitude.
This is the language of peace and it is powerful
