Why is the Guardian still smearing Charlie Kirk as "far Right" even after he was murdered by what appears to be an 'anti-fascist' activist inflamed by the Left's hyperbolic rhetoric, asks Professor James Alexander.

Shambhala meets Deirdre Clancy

Deirdre Clancy speaks at the Dublin Shambhala Centre at 8 pm on Tuesday 7 November.

Dublin Shambhala Centre
19 Herbert Street, Dublin 2.

Shambhala is a form of secular training for social action, with roots in Tibetan Buddhism. The warriors of the mythic kingdom of Shambhala are said to emerge in times of crisis to restore human dignity and compassion.

Deirdre Clancy is an anti-war activist in the Catholic Worker tradition, who in February 2003 participated in an action to disable a US military aircraft at Shannon Airport, and who was acquitted of charges of criminal damage by a unanimous jury in the High Court in July this year, on the grounds that she acted to protect life and property in Iraq.

What might members of the Shambhala community and members of the anti-war movement have to learn from each other?

This event offers meditators an opportunity to contemplate the suffering that is created through Ireland’s involvement in war, and to begin to engage in social action to relieve this suffering. The event offers anti-war activists an opportunity to still our restless minds, tame our own destructive emotions and cultivate peaceful, compassionate intent.

With a brief meditation, a talk followed by discussion, and refreshments.

The Dublin Shambhala Centre is at 19 Herbert Street. Herbert Street runs from Lower Baggot Street to St. Stephen's "pepper cannister" church on Upper Mount Street.

"Don’t just do something! Sit there!"
