"Buddha"

Canon G7x Mark II on monopod
Snapseed

"He (Thich Nhat Hanh - TNH) would talk about very profound Buddism in very simple terms..... ....(THN said) -  You can get angry at someone and you can think "Oh, they made me angry." And he said you wouldn't be angry if you didn't already have the seeds of anger in you. And they didn't make you angry. They watered your seeds. And your seeds flowered. And it felt like anger. And he said if you get angry in relationship with that - if you get angry about being angry or get angry with the person who "made" you angry, who watered your seeds, then you create the seeds of more anger. And if you have mindfulness of your anger and you don't retaliate, you create the seeds of mindfulness. So please study."
