Very important teaching!

Hi.

What if we taught our kids and ourselves to do this every day?



Thank you for your practice.

Thank you, Fugen.

It's a great real practice for kids, I think, or for close friends.

In my surroundings, some people don't even like handshakes, and it took me half my life to hug my best friend.
So it would be a world-changing practice in societies that are more distanced in manner.

I'll remember it when chance arises, and I'll hug people mentally during metta practice.
Often there are people I have never had the chance to tell how thankful I am, or how helpful they are.
Or people I see as difficult, but who are just the same as me in their suffering.

May a hug be with you.

Gassho,
Danny

I love hugging trees. How precarious and unsteady we seem next to their steadiness and stillness through the seasons of change.

I prefer to hi five the low hanging branches. It's a nice connection without being too personal!

It wasn't until very recently that I've become comfortable with hugs or saying "I love you"s to friends. I still don't do either with my parents! Physical affection never happened when I grew up. I suppose that's very Japanese?
