Becoming Earth

In the context of rapidly increasing temperature and accelerated loss of glaciers threatening cultural survival of Indigenous communities in the high-Himalayas, what is the role of spiritually living? How does spiritual living with climate change inform roles and responsibilities of researchers?

This yearlong journey, inspired by Stephen Levine’s A Year to Live, is a heartfelt invitation to people of all ages, at any stage of life. Together, in the spirit of community, we will explore how contemplating death can profoundly deepen our experience of living.

We are living through an unprecedented period of social, political, and climate instability. In times like these, many of us rely on our spiritual practices for support and insight. But what if your spiritual practices are actually replicating the systems of violence that perpetuates this collective instability? Join authors Nova Reid (The Good Ally) and Lama Rod Owens (The New Saints) as they explore the work of decolonization in our spiritual practice.
