Costa Ndayisabye's parents fled a Tutsis massacre in Rwanda to Burundi in 1959. After his mother was widowed at a young age, he and his siblings grew up in extreme poverty. Costa was imprisoned and tortured three times, in Congo and Burundi at the age of seventeen, and in Rwanda. The family repatriated to Rwanda in 1995 after the Tutsis Genocide, which took the lives of almost one million innocents within a period of 100 days. Inspired by the School for The Work with Byron Katie, where he found the true line of his innerpeace, Costa became an international presenter and facilitator for individual healing and interpersonal reconciliation. The Work That Brings Peace in Me, the name of his book and of his presentation, is an invitation to focus on The Present by questioning our mind. See less
