Walking through the Fire

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.

Join us for a free online gathering to honor the literary legacy of Joanna Macy through readings, dialogue, community reflection and Q&A with a panel of her fellow authors, moderated by Leilani Navar. This gathering will be facilitated by the Work That Reconnects Network, in collaboration with Parallax Press, Shambhala Publications, and New Society Publishers.

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.
