We all want Peace and Love. Yet, in the time of witnessing violence around and in us, how can we cultivate True Peace and True Love? Thay has said ‘Peace in Oneself, Peace in the World.’, ‘Love enables Us.’ Thus, in the coming 4 Friday Nights, we will be practicing together and reading Thay’s book Love in Action- writings on Non-Violent Social Change. We will read different chapters from the book on each Friday night. You are invited to join us, be inspired, be in love, and be in peace. We highly encourage you to join all four sessions.
