Do you have a deep sense of care for the Earth, and want to find ways to bring mindfulness to your climate response? This new online journey harnesses the wisdom of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh to teach us how to face challenging feelings and create a sense of freedom and possibility.

Join us for a session led by Douglas Christie - author of the "The Blue Sapphire of the Mind: Notes for a Contemplative Ecology", and professor emeritus from Loyola Marymount University. We'll talk with Douglas about where he has landed after decades studying thinkers ranging from ancient mystics to Thoreau to Annie Dillard.

Join Karin Meyers for this talk noting striking parallels between ancient Buddhist and contemporary debates about plant intelligence, and how new understandings of plant learning and sociability are contributing to contemporary Eco-Buddhist thinking and practice.

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.

On this hybrid Dharma Sunday with Lama Liz, we will continue exploring what it means to cultivate our innate capacity to relax into beingness with the energies of the phenomenal world. Hybrid event.

Typical Zen retreats are designed for intense and deep meditation experiences and include zazen (seated meditation), kinhin (group walking meditation), deep abdominal chanting, a talk at the interface of Zen and Ecodharma teachings, rest periods, samu (silent work periods) and dokusan (private interview with the teacher). To minimize spiritual bypassing, we also add council (sharing circles which include expressions of grief, fear, confusion and anger) and/or heart-centric songs everyday. (Hybrid)

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.
