Windy Moon Sangha is a mindfulness community practicing in the tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh. Thich Nhat Hanh is a monk, poet, scholar and peace activist. As a novice Monk, he studied in the Vietnamese Zen tradition, and later spoke out against the violence and the atrocities in the North-South Vietnamese war. He implored other monks and Buddhist practitioners to take the practice of mindfulness and peace out of the monastery and into their communities. Exiled by the Vietnamese government, "Thay," meaning "teacher" in Vietnamese, created the Community of Mindful Living at Plum Village, his home monastery in France. He describes the tradition of Buddhism he teaches as "Engaged Buddhism," encouraging people to foster peace and mindfulness in themselves, in their relationships, work, communities, and the world. Our Sangha practices seated meditation, walking meditation, dharma discussion, readings, and guided meditations. We meet Thursday evenings from 7:30-9:00 PM. The meetings are free, all are welcome, and no experience is necessary. "Peace in Oneself, Peace in the World." ~~Thich Nhat Hanh
