This is one of two versions of this meditation- this one is without the sound of a bell. For "Hope Meditation (with bells)", please click here.
This meditation allows us to reflect on hope, embracing the opportunities it brings for happiness. As Thay teaches: when cultivated in our practice, hope can make a difficult situation bearable. Within this hope, we may foster an energy of faith in our awareness; our true Buddha nature guiding us through the difficult situations we experience.
