Birthday: Continuation Day (Thich Nhat Hanh)

Happy Birthday message to the birthday gal traveling in Asia: Eds., Wisdom Quarterly

Your Birthday is a Continuation Day | Thich Nhat Hanh

(Plum Village) New Hamlet, Plum Village - Are you sure you were reborn on your birthday? Are you sure you are not yet redying? Thich Nhat Hanh explains his insights into Buddhist teachings on being reborn and dying.

Happy Continuation Day! (Samsara)

On our so-called birthday, instead of singing Happy Birthday, we can sing Happy Continuation Day. It’s closer to the truth. Happy Continuation Day! The day of our conception is also a continuation day. The day of rebirth is also a day of continuation. And how about the other days? We have already spent many days — 20 years, 30 years, 40 years, 80 years already, and what can we call these days? All of them are continuation days. And we die and we are reborn every day.
