Seeing with the Eyes of Faith (2): Father Aguilar of Nagasaki


How does one see such devastating disasters in Fukushima and make sense of life? Midori and I had a very special conversation with Father J. Jose Aguilar Colio, S.J. from Mexico who has been living in Japan for 59 years. He was one of the founding members of the 26 Martyrs Museum in Nagasaki back in 1962.

He had a simple message about this way of seeing with the eyes of faith: “Get deeper.”
