Answer 3

Thich Nhat Hanh teaches that we can talk to our dead loved ones through mindful walking and breathing in the here and now. Not through necromancy, but by being aware that they are present in our bodies, thoughts, feelings, consciousness, and mental formations. They are there in the stillness of lakes, solidity of mountains, freedom of space, and beauty and freshness of flowers
