Thich Nhat Hanh - Being Love -- Teachings to Cultivate Awareness and Intimacy -- (Excerpted From Teachings on Love)

Weaving together traditional stories, personal experiences and core concepts, Thich Nhat Hanh offers step-by-step practices that foster understanding and intimacy in any kind of relationship: between lovers, parents and children, even those who have done us harm.
According to the practice of mindfulness, our complete awareness in the present moment is the key to lasting transformation in all areas of our lives-especially in our most intimate relationships. On Being Love, Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh shows us how to cultivate the four basic qualities of authentic love-maitri (loving-kindness), karuna (compassion), mudita (joy), and upeksha (freedom). When we look deeply into ourselves and our loved ones, these qualities Begin to blossom effortlessly within us, nurturing ourselves and those around us.

I receive many touching comments on the Thich Nhat Hanh videos, and I'm really happy they have managed to reach so many people, and I'm able to help spread his timeless and invaluable teachings. I hope if they have been inspiring and meaningful for you that you can either buy the original recordings or donate to Plum Village, to help contribute to the beautiful and important work that is being done there.

I should also mention that this channel is not monetized in any way. The adverts you see are automatically generated by YouTube and I can't switch them off.

Thank you.

This IS the most beautiful message I have ever listened to, spoken by the most beautiful voice my heart has ever been touched by. I could close my eyes and see myself sitting with a group of other like minded people looking at the Buddha himself, as he speaks these words to us. I am deeply moved to realize that LOVE really IS what I always imagined it to be regardless of how the world has twisted and changed it to be a message of confusion. Please... I want to know more about this. ☺ ♥

I found the story Thay relates at about 38:00 onward moving and it gave me much solace. My dear wife Ruth has passed away and although we were together for decades, I always did my best for her and she passed away beside me at home, I so often feel I could and should have loved her better. But we were always close and never estranged thank heaven.
