#KAIRA JEWEL LINGO FULL#

I felt his main wish was for each of us to manifest our full potential as his disciples. I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn from someone who really walked his talk and who was extremely wise and loving. I definitely would and could not be who I am without having met this amazing teacher. You spent fifteen years as a nun with Thich Nhat Hanh, as holy and revered as any spiritual leader we have on this Earth.

Kaira’s We Were Made for These Times offers just the sort of down-to-earth wisdom needed to manage the major issues of the day with calm and perspective.Īfter a careful study of her wonderful book, we recently caught up with Kaira to ask a few follow up questions. Meet Kaira Jewel Lingo, a Buddhist nun who trained for fifteen years under the tutelage of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. Thankfully, we don’t have to live this way-if we’re willing to practice the mindfulness techniques developed by Buddhist masters over thousands of years. In fact, our relative leisure time seems to have mental health implications. We’re blessed as a species-no need to play the fight or flight game anymore, food arrives at our doorsteps minutes after we make the request, disease is mostly understood and cured with medicine-but that doesn’t mean life is easy or free of pain.
