Welcome to Many Rivers Sanghas
We practice meditation and mindfulness in the tradition of Zen Master Thích Nhất Hạnh, with an emphasis on cultivating mindfulness in daily life and using the support of a Sangha (community).
Here you can learn more about the mindfulness tradition established by Thích Nhất Hạnh, and upcoming opportunities to practice in community and participate in other regional events, such as retreats and days of mindfulness.
What we should ask ourselves is if we are practicing love for ourselves, because to love ourselves means to love our community. If we’re able to love ourselves, to nourish ourselves correctly, to not intoxicate ourselves, we’re already protecting and nurturing our society. Because the moment we’re able to smile, to look at ourselves with compassion, our world begins to change. -Thích Nhất Hạnh
