Estelle Frankel at the Open Faith Salon
The Open Faith Salon is devoted to inter-religious dialogue. This gathering was devoted to the theme of "Befriending the Unknown and Embracing Uncertainty." In light of current political realities, we explored how our respective spiritual traditions can help us deal with uncertainty and our anxieties about the unknown.

Zen in the Age of Anxiety: Wisdom for Navigating Our Modern Lives
Meditation doesn’t save us from life’s trials and tragedies. In fact, Zen meditation allows us to enter completely both the joy and darkness that make up this great life. Deep healing often begins in darkness, in times when we feel deep dissatisfaction and little or no vitality.
