ABSTRACT
The vitality of peace education relies on the symphony of voices. The chapter explores Buddhist embodied peace education. Each individual is a bearer of peace. In Buddhist currere, we engage in intersubjective compassionate contemplative inquiry, forming a peaceful square—scholar contemplator, Kuan Yin, the Heart Sutra, and the team of reader contemplators—of interlacing peace voices. In this relay, one directs and is directed by the wisdom compass. Wisdom-in-practice enables transformation, resonance, and self-control in peace, of peace, for peace. This Buddhist-influenced contemplation, with clarity in mind and spirit as its essence, and the mobilization of the peaceful core, is significant for scholars, teachers, and students. It is food, fuel, and force for peace education and peaceful living.
