Waking Up in a Living World

With Cara Lai and Zac Ispa-Landa

Hosted by

Barre Center for Buddhist Studies

From the Organizer:

This program brings together Buddhist teachings of emptiness and interdependence, awakening and liberation, embodied mindfulness, and nature-connection practices to explore what it means to be human — and to belong — in a world that is wild, uncertain, impermanent, and astonishingly alive. We will practice in nature, with nature, and as nature. Offered freely in the spirit of generosity, supported in part by Dharma Gates and the broader community of donors. Intended for participants ages 18–35.

Barre Center for Buddhist Studies is the host of this event. Please contact them with any questions.
