Thich Nhat Hanh
· May 23, 1999
· Gao Min temple, China
The Five Mindfulness Trainings represent a modern translation of the five śīla, moving away from the impression of rules imposed by an external authority toward a voluntary practice born of awakening. These trainings are the heart of Buddhist practice and are essential for the future of the world, applicable not only to individuals but to nations and leaders. Practicing these trainings cultivates mindfulness, a protective energy that nurtures growth and happiness, and contains the essence of the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha.
The five trainings are:
- Protecting Life: Cultivating compassion for humans, animals, plants, and minerals to bring happiness and relieve suffering.
- Social Justice: Practicing generosity and a simple life to transform exploitation, stealing, and oppression.
- Sexual Responsibility: Protecting the integrity of individuals and families by avoiding sexual relations without love and long-term commitment.
- Deep Listening and Loving Speech: Using the method of Avalokiteśvara to listen with compassion and speak with words that inspire joy and hope.
- Mindful Consumption: Consuming edible foods and sense impressions—such as television, books, and conversations—that preserve peace and well-being while avoiding toxins that damage the body and consciousness.
These trainings are a collective work developed through twenty years of Sangha practice to meet the needs of modern society. To maintain the giới thể, or the powerful energy of the precepts, one should recite the trainings every two weeks and participate in Dharma discussions. If a training is violated, the ceremony of beginning anew allows for restoration through confession and a renewed determination to practice. This path of mindful living, which includes reducing the consumption of meat and alcohol to address global hunger, is a practical way to protect oneself, one’s family, and the world.
