INTO THE PAIN
The work in different vulnerable communities confronted Rahel Lam repeatedly with facing pain and deep suffering. Often she felt helpless, unable to go on and facing the situation. The question of, what is the answer towards pain has been moving her in the last years.
In this Talk Rahel Lam outlines stories from three different woman whom she met during their work in India, who have shaped her life and changed her perspective through their suffering stories and gave deep insights into pain.
“There is only one way of understanding humanity, through connecting to our own brokenness and facing our pain.”
