EvolveLovingkindness in a Time of WarCan individual acts of loving-kindness really make a difference with Israel and Hamas at war? Rabbi Amy Eilberg, a longtime peace activist, says yes.

The first goal is to enable you to become aware of the extent of people active in peace work and peacebuilding efforts and to learn how each person draws resources from her or his faith or worldview perspective to do her or his peace work. The second goal is to provide for you practical resources for peace work and peacebuilding in your own life.
You may have noticed a change in my terminology. Formerly, I was using ‘peacemaking,’ beca...2021-01-181h 03

Rabbi Amy Eilberg has used the mindfulness meditation practice of metta, or lovingkindness, for this purpose.

Formerly, I called it Peacemaking.
