Description

Inherent in Buddhist philosophy is an all-encompassing respect for life and peaceful coexistence with all living things. All humans have the potential to be enlightened, to be awakened, and to live with intention, peace, and harmony with creation. You may be surprised that the Buddhist philosophy doesn’t contradict other Western faith traditions.

Presenter: Tonen O’Connor is a Soto Zen Buddhist priest who has been connected to the Milwaukee Zen Center since 2001. She has worked extensively with inmates within the Wisconsin Correctional system and serves on the Wisconsin Department of Corrections Religious Practices Advisory Committee. O'Connor has been active in numerous interfaith programs.
