Video Interview Transcript

As an organization we practice meditation. Every day we start with the staff of having time for meditation, the practice of mindfulness, the practice of being fully aware of what is going on within me. And being also fully present in the moment and to be able to distinguish all of these factors within me and conscious of all the different conversations that are taking place in my head in my thinking as well. And to begin to understand that these are conversations, these are thoughts, these are ideas and these thoughts and ideas of course always trigger emotions within us. And then, we see the connection between the mental, the physical, the emotional, the spiritual, all as one. And if we want to talk about peacemaking as individuals, If we are not able to reach a space where there is peace in these realms in our lives then we cannot really develop that leadership that can bring this into the community.
