Living Affinity is based on the fundamental premise that human beings are social by nature. As such, no individual can live apart from community. Venerable Master Hsing Yun uses this as his point of departure to probe the complex web of relationships that make up the "communities" in our lives. Exploring our relationships with others, with the natural world, with the world of wealth, with the world of time and space, and with Buddhism, he underscores the inherent potential for meaningful affinity and intimate connection in all of us.
