Reflection for September 2000
"I vow to offer joy to one person in the
morning
and to relieve the grief of one person in the afternoon
I vow to live simply and sanely,
content with few possessions.
I vow to let go of all worries and anxieties
in order to be light and free"
From the chanting book
Plum Village, France
For September:
 | Reflect on this passage from a chanting book at Plum Village, Thich Nhat Hank's Buddhist community in France. This verse states the actions of compassionate service that we can extend to ourselves and others. Practice this for one month. |
