Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh coming to Singapore
-
The renowned Noble Peace Prize nominee Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh is finally coming to Singapore. I had visited his Plum Village in Dordogne, France in 2003 for a 21-day mindfulness retreat. He is one of the gentlest and most peaceful man I have ever met. If you are interested in learning mindfulness meditation and join a retreat that is simple, not intensive, relaxing, natural and insightful, his upcoming teachings & 5-day retreat in Sept would be a must-go for you. 1 person can only get 4 tickets. If you are interested, get your tickets quickly.More information available at: http://www.kmspks.org/events/TNH.htm
Jing Rui“Always recognize the dreamlike qualities of life and reduce attachment and aversion. Practise good-heartedness toward all beings. Be loving and compassionate, no matter what others do to you. What they will do will not matter so much when you see it as a dream. The trick is to have positive intention during the dream. This is the essential point. This is true spirituality.”~ CHAKDUD TULKU ~

Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh
Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh is a Vietnamese Buddhist monk, poet
and scholar. In 1967, he was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by
Martin Luther King, Jr. for his lifelong efforts to generate peace and
reconciliation.
An author of more than one hundred books, he gives teachings at
Plum Village, a meditation practice centre in Southern France, and
travels worldwide to lead retreats on the Art of Mindful Living.
His key teachings, the Art of Mindful Living, is the continuous practice
of cultivating mindfulness, the energy of being aware and awake to
the present moment. To be mindful is to be truly alive, present and
at one with those around you and with what you are doing. -
Went to the Bright Hill temple today. No more tickets. Have to try the Bras Basah outlets.
-
So fast. Did you manage to get tickets?
-
As far as i know, the tickets are still available at the temple and the outlets, give a call before going there to make sure, just note that they might be in different halls. I'd applied for the retreat instead, a rare opportunity to learn from the Venerable which i do not want to miss.
