    An answer to world suffering?

    This video is Thich Nhat Hanh's answer to the following question.
    "How can I fight the injustices of this world without being consumed with anger,
    bitterness, outrage and resentment?"


    It is a question I am dabbling with periodically. Many of the comments to this video seem to lean towards just being, and although that is what he is talking about. I am hearing DO, but only after being propperly rested and up for the DOING

    Hi Eelco,

    I hear you.

    After three years it's still difficult to accept the world as it is
    and the fact things get even worse and the deeper we
    crawl into the rabbit whole the darker it gets.

    But somehow we have to deal with those things
    and go beyond. Be in this world and not of this world.

    Uiteindelijk komt alles goed
