About the talk:
The Macau Ricci Institute at the University of St. Joseph offers monthly Contemplation sessions focused on the topic of “Contemplation and Leadership”. The Forum explores how the practice of Contemplation may have a decisive impact on personal transformation, self-management, and leadership. The Contemplative prayer of silence during our sessions helps us in a re-discovery of the Psalms and the Gospel of St. John. During the Ignatian Year which stretches from 20 May 2021 through 31 July 2022 we reflect on the conversion St. Ignatius Loyola experienced 500 years ago when he was wounded by a cannon explosion in Pamplona as well as on the meaning of holiness in reference to the canonization of St. Ignatius with his friend Francis Xavier in 1622. The Forum also highlights the key insights of the founder of the Taipei Ricci Institute, Fr. Yves Raguin, S.J. who recognized in the journey of Contemplation and the mantric prayers of silence a privileged bridge for a dialogue with other wisdom traditions, especially with Buddhism.
