Open Reality

Meeting the Polycrisis Together With All Beings

Hosted by

San Francisco Zen Center

From the Organizer:

When Dharma eye looks at modern existence, things open up. Open Reality: Meeting the Polycrisis Together With All Beings, the newest book by Soto Zen priest and activist Shodo Spring, is a deep dive into that opening—exploring questions of human nature, our relationship with all sentient beings, and ways of living that allow the whole world to flourish. Rather than a traditional book discussion, this online gathering is offered as a ceremony. Led by Shodo Spring and Qayyum Johnson.

San Francisco Zen Center is the host of this event. Please contact them with any questions.
