In juni dit jaar hield zuster Boi Nghiem van Plum Village een lezing over gender inclusiviteit tijdens de online Wake Up Earth retraite. Zij gaf daarin een krachtige ondersteuning aan de LGBTQIA+ gemeenschap.
“Our society has hurt you enough. You seek to come to the Plum Village tradition to find peace, love and refuge.”
“I want to help, understand, heal and to be open to learn. Because I know that you have been through so much pain and suffering. … If not now, then when?”
