If there’s a response to taking part in domination of people and planet, let it be humility and resolve.

Welcome to One Earth Sangha, an EcoDharma network supporting a global community in the Path of Engaged Practice.

As ten thousand years of climate stability is ending, the call to develop inner stability has never been more clear.

A Conversation with Norma Kawelokū Wong

Online
Drawing on decades of Zen training, Indigenous Hawaiian knowledge, political strategy, and community practice, Norma shares the internal and collective shifts required to evolve with intention. Her teachings challenge us to release the logic of othering and splintering, to root ourselves in the mutual responsibilities of aloha and kuleana, and to step into the messy work asked of us in a timeplace of collapse.

Inner Resilience for Environmental Changemakers

Online
Join Mark Coleman, Kirsten Rudestam, and Yong Oh for a 5-month intensive to nourish the inner ground from which meaningful action can grow. The program is designed especially for people working for ecological integrity and environmental justice, especially those feeling the weight of grief, exhaustion, or burnout. This offering is shared free of charge as part of Spirit Rock’s EcoDharma and Transformational Culture Program.
Sponsored by the BESS Family Foundation, Earth Awareness Community Retreats are intended to foster community among those whose work and interests are focused on the intersection of mindfulness/meditation and climate change. Retreats will be held in 2025 – 2027 at four geographically dispersed retreat centers. Attendance at the retreats is free, but other costs are participant responsibilities.

There is a way to be a human being
that causes all life to thrive.
