We are used to seeing ourselves as individuals, but if we look deeper, the boundary with the world around us is not so sharp at all. As humans, we are embedded in a web of relationships: we are connected to our family, friends and colleagues, but - as the corona pandemic clearly showed - also with people on the other side of the world that we do not know at all. And even with all the other beings on this planet.
Our relationships also run through time, connecting us to our ancestors and future generations. Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh coined the term 'interbeing' to indicate this intrinsic connection. What does a connected life look like? And what does this mean for our love, friendship and family relationships?
