The following article is based on a spoken contribution in a Holocaust Memorial Day Interfaith Service / Event at Lancaster Priory in January 2018. It has been slightly edited, and a post-script added. The title, ‘The Power of Words’, was the UK national theme for this day.

May we exercise this power with utmost respect and attentiveness within the all-encompassing spaciousness and practice of meditation.
