Moving beyond the idea of ‘environment’ and falling back in love with Mother Earth.
Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh explains why mindfulness rather than economics is needed to protect nature and how a spiritual revolution is needed if civilization is to avoid being destroyed by climate change.
Filmed on the 22nd of December 2011, in Plum Village, France.

Of course, we who often visit this website know of Thay's extraordinary communication abilities, how he offers the most complicated concepts in a clear, easy-to-understand manner. The dharma lesson in this interview is indeed of the utmost urgency. Equally impressive, to me, was the interviewer's technique. Unlike many interviewers, Mr. Confino did not have a need to interpose his own voice throughout. He asked a far-reaching question, then had the wisdom and sensitivity to listen to the far-reaching reply. How wonderful that a person of his stature has command of the ego!

Thank you for sharing this interview, most enlightening. I look forward to the growing awareness and raising of consciousness throughout the world, and particularly in the business community. We need to go back to first principles, and re-establish long lost values.

I am very pleased the guardian is recognising light workers like Thayer. There are many more like this who understand the cosmos and we are one.
