With David Takahashi

Online
If the Buddha were alive today, she would find a planet depleted of resources, a feverish global warming, and a mass extinction. It's time to admit the waters around us have grown and to face drenching to the bone. Join David Takahashi in an interactive investigation into using the Three Tenets (Not Knowing, Bearing Witness, and Compassionate Action) of the Zen Peacemakers to address environmental old age, sickness, and death through living harmlessly.

With Dawn Neal & Kirsten Rudestam

Online
This half-day online gathering brings together teachers from the Sati Center’s Buddhist Chaplaincy Training and Buddhist Eco-Chaplaincy programs. Designed for anyone curious about chaplaincy rooted in Buddhist values, the event offers an opportunity to explore the rich intersections between ecological and interpersonal forms of spiritual care.

Palestine Online

Online
A chance to visit Palestine for the evening and meet an activist who is seeking peace despite the impact of occupation. An opportunity to practice compassionate listening, and to build bridges over barriers of separation, and participate in our shared humanity.

With Shinei Monial, Soten Lynch, Adam Lobel, and Ayya Santacitta

Online
Created in partnership with the BESS Family Foundation, this is an eight-week live online course for young adults 18-35 that invites us to examine our relationship to a changing Earth and World: Earth as the living planet we breathe and depend upon, and World as the horizon of meaning we inhabit. The course is offered by-donation in the spirit of generosity, or dāna.
Through contemplative and creative practice, and collective inquiry, we hope to open space for renewal and relationship building among people who are engaged in both meditation and movements for justice, and who are living and working in the land of the Lenape people. This 3-day, non-residential retreat in Philadelphia will be led by, and will lift up the voices and priorities of BIPOC, trans, queer, disabled, and/or immigrant spiritual/political/creative practitioners.

Meeting Our Challenges as Gateways for Embodying Interconnection
