The next Buddha will not take the form of an individual.

The next Buddha will not take the form of an individual.
The next Buddha may take the form of a community;
a community practicing understanding and loving kindness,
a community practicing mindful living.
This may be the most important thing we can do for the survival of the Earth."

(Thich Nhat Hanh)


This is the motivating wind , the navigating compass, the Vision of this Revolution..........

  1. the Buddha is just a metaphor
    inspired by a man
    alluded by the community
    and has very little affect on the earth
    it might affect those who are inspired...
    inspired to act; that one act
    can possibly change his or herself

    the man named Buddha or whoever they are
    can aspire others with imagination; which has no form
    but by alluding with a simple metaphor
    an act that take time to reflect in silence
    in this quiet space, returns to nature
    even possibly without mind; nor concepts
    of understanding, compassion and/or mindful living
    as in a child full of light
    and warm radiance
    inspired joy.
