At Zen Peacemakers, we stand as a beacon of hope, an interfaith community bound together by our mission: to realize our oneness and relieve suffering through contemplative social action through the practice of our Three Tenets: Not-Knowing, Bearing Witness, and Taking Action. Embracing the rich tapestry of human diversity, we unite souls from varied spiritual paths and traditions, igniting a collective commitment to peace and interconnectedness that transcends all boundaries.
Taking Action: that arises from Not-Knowing and Bearing Witness
The underlying intention is that the action that arises be a caring action, which serves everyone and everything, including yourself, in the whole situation.
