The Silence of Life | Dharma Talk by Thich Nhat Hanh, April 17, 2014

In the 25th chapter of the Lotus Sutra there is the bodhisattva Avalokitesvara – the one who listens to the sound of the world. Five kinds of sound are mentioned in this chapter. Thay teaches on these sounds: the sound of wonder, the one who observes the sound of the world, the brahma sound, the sound of the rising tide, the one that transcends all worldly sounds. 0:00 Chanting 9:22 Hearing the Call of Mother Earth 23:25 The Sound of Silence 35:48 Types of Sound in Lotus Sutra 50:00 Impermanence of Sound 1:02:56 Establishing Silence 1:15:43 Consumption of Sound You can support us by: - donating: https://plumvillage.org/support - helping to caption & translate: https://amara.org/en/profiles/videos/plumvillage/ or http://www.youtube.com/timedtext_cs_panel?tab=2&c=UCcv7KJIAsiddB2YRegvrF7g Help us caption & translate this video! https://amara.org/v/C0G6R/
