A Joyful Wave | Thich Nhat Hanh | Plum Village App #Shorts

  • 0:00 - 0:05
    It's like a wave on the surface of the ocean.
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    She may be very fearful.
  • 0:08 - 0:13
    Because she gets caught in notions
    like beginning, ending,
  • 0:13 - 0:18
    going up, going down, more or less beautiful
    than the other wave.
  • 0:21 - 0:27
    But if the wave is aware that she is water,
  • 0:28 - 0:31
    she loses all these kinds of fear.
  • 0:32 - 0:35
    Going up she's joyful.
  • 0:36 - 0:38
    Going down she's joyful.
  • 0:39 - 0:42
    Because she knows that she is water.
  • 0:43 - 0:45
    She is not only a wave.
  • 0:45 - 0:47
    She is also water.
  • 0:48 - 0:51
    So water represents the ultimate.
  • 0:51 - 0:55
    Water represents God.
  • 0:56 - 0:58
    Water represents nirvana.
