We need not shrink from this world. We can be in meaningful relationship with Earth, taking what is wholesome and joyfully reciprocating.

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 Douglas Christie

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.

The Strange History of Plants in Buddhism

Online
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.

With David Takahashi

Online
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.
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.
