This talk details Plum Village’s summer retreat focused on the Buddha’s path of understanding, love, and peace, embodying Dharma in daily life to share joy and happiness. The Chinese story of farmer Tai illustrates accepting life’s unfolding without labeling events as positive or negative. Mindful walking, breathing, and presence are emphasized, appreciating Earth’s beauty akin to space tourism joy. Plum Village practices mindfulness, walking meditation, and breathing, fostering healing and transformation. The Five Mindfulness Trainings, revised after eight months of dedicated practice, embody Buddha’s teachings and ethical vision, transcending religious boundaries, and are available in Vietnamese, English, and French.
