The Five Mindfulness Trainings — to not kill, steal, commit adultery, lie, or take intoxicants — are the basic statement of ethics and morality in Buddhism. In
For a Future to Be Possible, Zen Master and peace activist
Thich Nhat Hanh discusses these Five Mindfulness Trainings and offers insight and challenges for how they might play an important role in our personal lives and in society. Nhat Hanh calls the Five Trainings a "diet for mindful society," and he hopes that this book will launch a discussion, transcending sectarian boundaries, on how we can agree upon and practice moral guidelines that will allow us to sustain a compassionate and sane life together.
"At the foundation of each one of these trainings is mindfulness. Mindfulness protects us, our families, and our society, and ensures a safe and happy present and a safe and happy future. I believe these Five Mindfulness Trainings are medicine for our time."
--Thich Nhat Hanh, from For a Future to Be Possible
