A Collective Awakening for the Survival of the Planet

Follow the link for a dharma talk given by Thich Nhat Hahn on the 5 main precepts of mindfulness practice. This talk takes approximately 1 hour and 17 minutes. Find a nice comfortable, quiet place to listen to this very powerful talk. It is well worth the time you spend listening.

Thay Thich Nhat Hanh offers this special Dharma Talk to the 2009 Parliament of World Religions being held in Melbourne Australia. This very special and powerful talk, transmitted by video to hundereds of people in Australia, opens the doors of practice available through the Five Mindfulness Trainings. The Five Mindfulness Trainings offer a concrete path of practice that can lead to a collective awakening, that can transform our hatred, fear and greed, and in turn bring healing to ourselves and our planet, thus solving the problems of climate change, terrorism, and poverty at their root.
