A Climate Café

Online
In these gatherings, we will incorporate ritual, contemplations, discussion, art, writing and other ways of representing what we feel and know. This will provide an opportunity for communal witnessing of our felt responses to the environmental suffering that is taking place all over the world, and especially in the lives of marginalized populations.

Ideas of Nation Building and Buddhism

Join us for an insightful evening as we delve into the brilliant mind of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, exploring his profound ideas on nation-building, Buddhism, and social justice. This in-person event will provide an opportunity to engage with community members and gain deeper insights into Dr. Ambedkar’s contributions toward a just and equitable society.
Online
In this 7-week Ubuntu-based decolonial journey, we explore the impact of colonisation on our bodies, minds, family systems, communities, and worldview through an intersectional lens of oppression. In a world entangled in poly-crises, we will examine the assumptions, investments, and desires that sustain these challenges.

With Rebecca Bradshaw

Online
The Zen master Dogan said that awakening is intimacy with all things. We will explore how our practice can lead to being a co-participant in intimate relationship with the very alive natural world in which we are embedded. Who knows, we might even become animists!

Bridging Divides with Katharine Hayhoe

Online
Join us in learning how to have conversations about climate in this polarizing time.

With David Loy

This May, Mountain Cloud is hosting a month-long Ecodharma residency program with Zen teacher David Loy. This program is designed to resource participants in the face of multiple intersecting crises and support them in finding ways to skillfully engage with the world. The first round of application review will begin on January 31st.

Singing for Liberation – A BIPOC Retreat

Join Melanie Harris and Joshuah Brian Campbell for this program that invites participants into an exploration of liberation through the history of movement songs, Buddhist meditation, active listening, and being with the sacred tradition of African American Spirituals.

A Response to Our Environmental Crisis

Through reflections, experiential exercises, and mindfulness practices, this workshop is designed to build our capacity and stamina to fully engage in the healing of our world. Facilitated by Jean Hammink and Matt Streit.

Acting as an Individual and as Community

Online
Join Narapa and Kim Farr and hear how one Sangha has engaged in individual and community activities to promote biodiversity, tackle climate change and support the local community in areas from helping food banks to engaging asylum seekers in supporting the environment. This is the first online event of Buddhist Action Month (BAM), an annual opportunity to put our Buddhist values into action.

SOLIDARITY, with Roshi Joan Halifax

Online
Join us on one or two Sundays each month, in the continued commitment to social and environmental engagement and justice in this very complex time, to exploring the roots of structural violence in our social systems, and to engaging in the world in a courageous way based on contemplative practice and views that actualize non-separateness, interbeing, equity, compassion, justice, integrity, courage, dignity, and unshakable awareness.
