Thich Nhat Hanh: Ten Love Letters to the Earth
"Dear Mother Earth, I bow my head before you as I look deeply and recognize that
you are present in me and that I'm a part of you. I was born from you and you
are always present, offering me everything I need for my nourishment and growth.
My mother, my father, and all my ancestors are also your children. We breathe
your fresh air. We drink your clear water. We eat your nourishing food. Your
herbs heal us when we're sick." In honor of the passing of beloved Buddhist
teacher, Thich Nhat Hanh, Emergence Magazine shares his Ten Love Letters to the
Earth.
The following meditations invite us into a dynamic relationship with this planet we call home.
