Make space for the unforeseen
A thought that arose almost by chance, an invitation accepted in the silence of prayer, and a choice capable of changing two lives. The story of a friendship that became a gift of life.
A friendship born by chance and made up of small attentions and unconditional gestures can leave a lasting mark on a person’s life and become the beginning of an unexpected change.
On the morning of 10th August, the earthly journey of Dr. Kala Acharya ended. She was a deeply committed Hindu who was engaged in interreligious dialogue, and had a profound relationship with Chiara Lubich.
In a letter expressing her condolences, Margaret Karram, President of the Focolare Movement wrote, “With her spiritual sensitivity and her great human depth, she helped our Movement to understand every more fully the universal dimension of Chiara’s charism. With discretion, expertise and passion, she accompanied us in re-reading many of our founder’s insights from new perspectives”.
