Welcome to
The Raft.
Created by the
Thich Nhat Hanh Foundation,
Plum Village Monastery,
Parallax Press, and the
Plum Village App team,
The Raft is a special weekly series for a period of time during the pandemic, assembled to nourish and inspire your individual and collective mindfulness practice. Each issue will feature curated content from our global monasteries and initiatives, including upcoming online events, recorded Dharma talks, guided meditations, and more - a gift basket of nourishment, good news, and sharings from the heart to help keep you grounded and connected during these challenging times.
If you do not wish to receive
The Raft, you can unsubscribe at any time.
A Raft for Our Times
One can compare mindfulness practice to a raft that helps us cross over to the other shore - the shore of peace, freedom, and well-being. Similarly, this weekly series is a body of teachings and practices specific to this moment in our collective history. We invite you to take refuge in these offerings, and joyfully float with us on
The Raft for a duration of time during this pandemic.
“We should use the teaching like a raft to bring us across the river. And then when we've crossed the river we can leave the raft there for someone else to use.”
And as Thich Nhat Hanh has taught, once we have benefitted from the raft, we should make it available to others. If you’ve enjoyed
The Raft, please share it with your fellow Sangha members, friends, and loved ones.
