Remembering Thich Nhat Hanh (Thích Nhất Hạnh)

The revered Buddhist monk and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh (Thích Nhất Hạnh, lovingly known as “Thay” to his students) passed away peacefully at Từ Hiếu Temple in Huế, Vietnam on 22nd January, 2022, at the age of 95.The Integral Yoga global community offers our reverential pranams, love, and gratitude for his being. May we embody and live the peace he taught and exemplified.
Plum Village (the monastic community in France) announced: “Thay has been the most extraordinary teacher, whose peace, tender compassion, and bright wisdom has touched the lives of millions. Whether we have encountered him on retreats, at public talks, or through his books and online teachings–or simply through the story of his incredible life–we can see that Thay has been a true bodhisattva, an immense force for peace and healing in the world.
“Thay has been a revolutionary, a renewer of Buddhism, never diluting and always digging deep into the roots of Buddhism to bring out its authentic radiance. Thay has opened up a beautiful path of Engaged and Applied Buddhism for all of us: the path of the Five Mindfulness Trainings and the Fourteen Mindfulness Trainings of the Order of Interbeing. As Thay would say, “Because we have seen the path, we have nothing more to fear.” We know our direction in life, we know what to do, and what not to do to relieve suffering in ourselves, in others, and in the world; and we know the art of stopping, looking deeply, and generating true joy and happiness.”Now is a moment to come back to our mindful breathing and walking, to generate the energy of peace, compassion, and gratitude to offer our beloved Teacher. It is a moment to take refuge in our spiritual friends, our local sanghas and community, and each other.

“We invite you to join our global community online, as we commemorate Thay’s life and legacy with five days of practice and ceremonies broadcast LIVE from Hue, Vietnam and Plum Village, France, starting on Saturday January 22nd.

“There will also be in-person and live ceremonies hosted by Deer Park Monastery, California, and other practice centers in our tradition, as well as recitations of the Five and Fourteen Mindfulness Trainings. Please reach out to your local practice center or sangha for more information.

Deer Park Monastery (California)
Magnolia Grove Monastery (Mississippi)
Blue Cliff Monastery (New York)
EIAB (Germany)
Maison de l’Inspir’ and Healing Spring (Paris)
Thai Plum Village (Thailand)
Australia: Nhap Luu (near Melbourne) and Mountain Spring Monastery (near Sydney)
AIAB at Lotus Pond Temple (Hong Kong)

“Let us each resolve to do our best over the coming days to generate the energy of mindfulness, peace, and compassion, to send to our beloved Teacher.

“Over the coming hours on the Plum Village website, we will publish some inspirational chants, texts, and mindfulness practice resources, to support you to come together with your local sangha to generate a collective energy of mindfulness and compassion, and create your own ceremony or session in tribute to our Teacher. As Thay has always taught, nothing is more important than brotherhood and sisterhood, and we all know the power of collective energy.

“To join us in this time of collective practice over the coming days, please sign up to our international email list for more updates: https://bit.ly/3fJx7pd ”
