Miami, Florida ( USA ): The Third Sunday in March recognized Women’s History Month and featured a conversation on “Women Showing the Way.“
BK Julia from the BKs at United Nations office in NY and Natalie Castellanos, Policy Director for Health Foundation of South FL , engaged in conversation about women’s empowerment which was facilitated by Kathy Shea.
BK Julia shared recent experiences with the UN Commission on the Status of Women and the BK role at the UN. Natalie, a dedicated mindfulness practitioner was open and honest about the role of meditation in her life and how important it was that the BKs provided a safe space for conversations such as these. BK Waddy offered “that’s all anyonewants, to let their light shine…. and the light is connected with the inherent goodness of the living being.” Sr. Julia read moving quotes from Dadi Janki and Dadi Gulzar leading into the experience of World Peace Meditation with guided commentary by Bebe Butler and Lucinda Drayton‘s song “I Will Rise”.
