The work of
Sage-ing International
grew from the pioneering visionary, Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, who published ground-breaking insights in the book
From Age-ing to Sage-ing. Reb Zalman invited a new vision of aging embracing a model of introspection cultivating deep wisdom and the potential for assuming the role of a sage in a world deeply in need of elder wisdom. He precipitated a national conversation about how aging can be a conscious, meaningful and valuable part of life. We continue the journey that he began. And the
time is now for
"Elder Voices Transforming the World - Our Stories in Action!"
