Join us for an evening of learning, reflection, and action. We’ll briefly share about the Make Polluters Pay campaign — why it matters, and how people of faith can help pass this historic legislation in 2026. Then, we’ll hear from faith and advocacy leaders about how our shared values of justice, compassion, and stewardship call us to act — and how your congregation can make a difference.

This program will be led by Sharon Salzberg, Frank Ostaseski, and Roshi Joan Halifax. Love, while often categorized as romantic, also includes ethical action, social concern, and responsibility. It is grounded in seeing our interdependence with all beings.

Every Wednesday until January 7 Guardians of the Sacred will be dedicated to the protection of Oak Flat. Oak Flat, Chi’chil Biłdagoteel, is a sacred site for the Western Apache people in Arizona. It is currently in grave danger of being turned over to an international copper mining company.

We invite you not just to talk about the future, but to join us there. We will spend the day dreaming, drawing, drafting delightful designs, and discussing the dramatic distance between our present world and the near future we will be visiting. You can expect the workshop to be active, fun, and engaging—it’s part reflection, part visioning, part theater game, part grief, and part radical hope.

This eight-session EcoSattva Training, created by One Earth Sangha, will be facilitated by IWM Guiding Teacher Emeritus Rebecca Bradshaw.

A limited number of online spots will be made available.

Loka is offering a free 10-week online training experience for faith leaders as part of our mission to support faith-led environmental and climate action.

Apply by December 22.

Through a combination of scholarly reflection and public engagement, participants will explore how coloniality and power continue to manifest within Buddhist Studies and how decolonial approaches can open new possibilities for research, pedagogy, and practice.

Join us for an open informational session about ZPO Cohort 4, beginning March 6, 2026 — a 16-month formation in contemplative study and engaged social action. Rooted in the Three Tenets of Not-Knowing, Bearing Witness, and Taking Action, the Zen Peacemaker Order Formation offers a living path of awakening and service in the world as it is.

Hosted by Lama Willa and Deborah Eden Tull, these gatherings invite us to experience Dharma not as fixed doctrine, but as a living, relational field—one that emerges spontaneously through authentic dialogue and shared presence. Guests for this series include Kazu Haga, Susie Harrington, Kritee Kanko, Adam Lobel, Thanissara, and Karen Waconda-Lewis, with additional guests to be announced. You only need to register once to access the full year of monthly Dharma Dialogues and you may join at any point during the series.

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.
