Interbeing is a philosophical concept and contemplation practice rooted in the Zen Buddhist tradition, notably proposed by Thich Nhat Hanh.[1][2] It underscores the inter-connectedness and interdependence of all elements of existence.[3][4] It informs ethical living, mindfulness, and compassionate actions.[5] It is practiced by the Plum Village Buddhist tradition and the Order of Interbeing, a lay community dedicated to its practice.[6]
