The Miracle of Mindfulness: An Introduction to the Practice of Meditation

by Thich Nhat Hanh

“Hardest of all is to practice the Way at home, second in the crowd, and third in the pagoda.”

Meditation on interdependence is to be practiced constantly, not only while sitting, but as an integral part of our involvement in all ordinary tasks. We must learn to see that the person in front of us is ourself and that we are that person. We must be able to see the process of inter-origination and interdependence of all events, both those which are happening and those which will happen.
