Peace-Makers Illuminating Human Dignity
This week Shelagh Shalev will teach about the Vietnamese Thiền Buddhist monk, Thích Nhất Hạnh, and his understanding of the Dignity of the Human Person.
Moderated by Peta Jones Pellach and hosted by Sr Rita Kammermeyer.
Shelagh Shalev, Israel
Shelagh Shalev (Chan Bao An) is a Dharma teacher in the Plum Village lineage of Vietnamese Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay) since 2010. Almost thirty years ago Shelagh discovered Buddhist wisdom as taught by Thay and knew right away that what she had learned would transform her life. Seeing his peaceful presence in walking, talking, eating was transformative. Shelagh was born in Ireland and has lived in Israel since 1970 where she is actively engaged in sharing the teachings through sanghas, mindfulness courses and
retreats. Grandmother of six.
The discussion will be followed by Christian, Muslim, and Jewish prayers, and a meditation led by Shelagh Shalev.
