There is a Cloud inside the Calligraphy by Thich Nhat Hanh

Greetings Dear Friends.

Many years ago I was on a retreat with Thich Nhat Hanh in Nottingham. 'Thay' will often pause during a Dharma talk and sip his tea, on this occasion he deliberately paused, sat peacefully, poured a cup of tea and with total mindfulness and concentration, sipped his tea. After a further pause he said "when you drink your tea think of the cloud". I have enough respect for 'Thay' to know he does not use his words frivolously, but I did not know what he meant, until some time later when the penny did eventually drop......

When we include mindfulness into our lives our perspective of the world we live in changes. In this audio clip Thay refers to mindfulness, tea, clouds and the art of calligraphy. The recording is of 'Thay' giving a talk to children on a retreat but is equally as informative to the '5-year old' in us. 

I hope you will enjoy it as much as me.
