Video Interview Transcript

I think it's helpful to learn the Beatitudes off by heart. So that they become a framework for living that we internalize that begins to shape our response. And I think it's helpful for us to meditate on that day and night. But I would say the most important part, the most important time for reflecting on that, Is in the nanosecond between action and reaction in the constant ebb and flow and busyness of life. Because the revolution succeeds or fails depending on our response. I believe we need to be able, in the busyness of life, to slow down, so we have the time between our action and reaction to process our response, and then shape our response in terms of the Beatitudes. That's where the revolution is won or lost. And I think we need to not only do contemplation upon action, we need to do contemplation in action so we actually reflect on the Beatitudes and then process our reactions in the light of Beatitudes. And so that we respond creatively and constructively. So we don't destroy the very communities that we're trying to nurture.
