Meditation for Peace at the Eixample of Barcelona Health Fair. Saturday, 6 November 2027, at 10:30 a.m. At the intersection of Consell de Cent and Girona streets. We invite you to pause amid the movement of the city and share a moment of silence. Zen Kannon is offering a meditation for peace that is open to everyone, whether you already practise or would simply like to try it for the first time.

Meditation for Peace in Barcelona’s Eixample district

For half an hour, we will sit and follow the breath. No previous experience or special preparation is needed: you can meditate on a cushion or in a chair. The practice offers a chance to listen to what is around us, return to the present moment and cultivate an attitude of calm and care for all beings. Meditating in a public space means sharing silence with the neighbourhood and with the people passing by. We hope you can join us!

Meditating for peace in the street

Sitting down to meditate in the street is a gesture of peace in the midst of shared life. For a few moments, people from different walks of life stop, breathe together and let the silence bring them closer. Each person brings their own story, yet in stillness we can recognise that the wish to live without fear or violence is shared by all beings.

We dedicate this meditation to everyone suffering because of war and to all those working to bring wars to an end. By bringing our hearts together, we nurture a culture of respect, compassion and nonviolence. May this shared practice help us turn our wish for peace into everyday words and actions, and may our aspiration reach every place where conflict continues: may wars come to an end and peoples live in peace.
