The Seeds of Being is the international home of Chuyện Bên Mâm Cơm — “Stories Around the Family Table” — a Vietnamese knowledge project devoted to the wisdom of everyday life.
Around the family table, generations have passed down a quiet understanding of how lives take shape: through causes, conditions and effects. We translate those writings faithfully into English so that readers everywhere can share in them.
Our promise
We stay close to the original texts. We write in a language of light — affirming, constructive and kind. And we offer every seed freely, trusting it to find good soil.
