Will Thay sing us a song?
What made you want to become a zen master?
Teens

My father causes much suffering and doesn’t practice right view. I have lots of resentment I am fearful. How do I transform my suffering to peace and joy when he has hurt me so much?
How did mindfulness help you in your life?
How can I bring the practice to life for the ones I love without forcing it on them, especially those who have sexual misconduct or doing drugs?
Adults
A question about engaged Buddhism.
In the list of 51 mental formations, shame is identified as a wholesome formation. Can you explain this?
A question about hope. Fear and anger in society and future of human race and the planet.
Another question on the future. With favorable climatic conditions ending, how do we balance kindness/mindfulness for future generations and with present people?
A question about ending a relationship. What do you do when there isn’t an ability to leave a toxic relationship? How do we transform if we’re not strong enough in our practice? Also concerns about financial stability beyond the relationship.
A question from a person who can’t overcome her suffering. The pain seems insurmountable. The question comes with some question on how to continue living.

August 08, 2013 Closing Summer Opening 2013 – You Are, Therefore I Am
August 2, 2013. 86-minute dharma talk given by Thich Nhat Hanh from Upper Hamlet of Plum Village during the 2013 Summer Opening. This is the sixteenth talk of the summer and this is the final talk for the summer.
Thay begins a 17-minute teaching for the children on no coming, no going and no sameness, no otherness. He uses a picture of himself as a teenager to illustrate sameness and otherness. Is it the same person as a picture of him today? Thay also uses the flame of a match to illustrate. Is it the same? This is the nature of things and we can see this if we meditate. The teaching of the middle way is a very deep teaching.
Thay continues with the adults. The third pair of opposites is no birth, no death and the fourth is no being, no non-being. We can live with no fear if we remove these four pairs of opposites and have Right View. Removes discrimination and produces understanding and compassion.This is enlightenment. Awakening. Interbeing.
You Are, Therefore I Am
With Right View, we have understanding and we generate Right Speech. Speech that is filled with understanding and compassion and restore communication.
Right Action – thought, speech, and behavior. With Right View we can also have Right Livelihood, Right Dligence, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration.
A brief teaching on the Doors of Liberation – emptiness, signlessmees, and aimlessness. These too can help remove fear, anger, and despair.
