The Time for Peace is Now: Engaging beyond the Cushion with Kaira Jewel Lingo
Baltimore continues to wrestle with the aftermath of the April Uprising on many fronts. Some folks are sharing more about separation and race. Still, there is a tendency to return to the “same old – same old” attitudes about injustice in our city and across the nation. How do we express the urgency of change through peace? We understand that peace in Baltimore is a step on the path of peace in the world.
Kaira Jewel Lingo, formerly Sr. Jewel, was ordained as a nun by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh in 1999 and as a Dharma teacher in 2007. She returned to lay life in March of 2015 and continues to share the practice of mindfulness as a lay Buddhist teacher. Kaira Jewel has led mindfulness retreats in the U.S., Europe, Asia, Brazil, India and Southern Africa. She shares mindfulness and compassion, especially with children, families and young people, and brings mindfulness to teachers and schools. She also leads regular retreats for people of color and artists. She explores the interweaving of art, play, ecology and spiritual practice and is a certified yoga teacher and InterPlay leader.
