- Pádraig Ó Tuama is a poet, theologian, and extraordinary healer in our world of fracture. He leads the Corrymeela community of Northern Ireland, a place that has offered refuge since the violent division that defined that country until the 1998 Good Friday Agreement. Ó Tuama and Corrymeela extend a quiet, generative, and joyful force far beyond their northern coast to people around the world. Over cups of tea and the experience of bringing people together, he says it becomes possible to talk with each other and be in the same room with the people we talk about. (Original Air Date: March 2, 2017)

What a beautiful conversation between two sojourners. Thank you On Being for all you the understandings, appreciations and sensitivities you have brought to us.
Valuable guidance in mid-January 2021 as enmity and violence grip the US. This interview opened me up and helped me angle towards healing.
Ahh yes, healing. To know that we are love itself. it is our essence.
I have a deep yearning to come home. My father landed in Canada 53 years ago. I am here, in Canada. Great heath care and such a lovely country. But I long for Ireland.
go there, join in and feel better
Many beautiful moments in this conversation. Thank you.
I just heard this program on NPR, liked his poetry, and will follow this poet. Thank you!
I know right? I am Canadian and so grateful for NPR. Also CBC, BBC. Great material here. Cheers! So amazing that Ireland was one of the first countries to legalize gay marriage. What a beautiful surprise.
Beautiful
Wonderful interview
From Wikipedia… “Corrymeela was awarded the Niwano Peace Prize in 1997, in honour of "its contribution to significantly to interreligious cooperation, thereby furthering the cause of world peace.”” Sounds like an organization that has done a lot of good over many decades.
Who puts an ad in the middle of a poem! The world has surely gone to hell
a bit cultish
How so?
It's okay to listen to others and also to be alone. Where is the cult you speak of?
@@meghan42 Have you checked out his organisation? Corrymeela? If not have a look and see what you make of it.
