Dear Friends,
It is my pleasure to facilitate this Sunday as we continue to explore the Four Noble Truths and Eightfold Path. Buddha is said to have stated, "wherever the Noble Eightfold path is practiced, joy, peace and insight are there". I am honored to be sharing on the topic of RIGHT ACTION.
About Right Action, Thay says: There are many things we can do to practice Right Action.
1. We can protect life
2. Practice generosity
3. Behave responsibly
4. Consume Mindfully
The basis of Right Action is Right Mindfulness. In mindfulness we recognize our thoughts that lead to our actions and make decisions that produce healing and recognition.
In the next week I invite you to explore one of the above practices with mindfulness and see what happens when you bring awareness to your actions.
Peace and Joy
Tree
