THIS WEEK’S FAVORITE QUOTE

The next Buddha may very well be a Sangha, a community of practice.

Thich Nhat Hanh

“This quote inspires me because we’re in a time in which we need a profound whole systems change. What we need now is so big that I don’t think any single individual can lead the revolution. We’ve been inspired by such leaders as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Nelson Mandela, and Mahatma Gandhi. What is needed for such a big social change is a deep community of practice, a sangha around which that transformation can turn.”

Terry Patten (1951-2021), author of
A New Republic of the Heart:
An Ethos for Revolutionaries
