Combining the wisdom of the Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh and the teachings of David Loy, we came together for this 3-hour Online Workshop to explain the state of the world in Buddhist terms AND identify secular mindfulness practices to engage in a healing way. To be part of the SOLUTION.

Watch the recording, investigate the resources, and come practice with us.

“Our present economic system institutionalizes greed, our militarism institutionalizes ill will, and our corporate media institutionalize delusion.”

  • Interbeing: The 14 Mindfulness Trainings of Engaged Buddhism If you want to live life as an active agent for change: begin here. Originally formulated by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh during the war in Vietnam, Interbeing is a call to collective awakening and a guidebook for getting there. The Fourteen Mindfulness Trainings are a radical expression of Buddhist ethics and morality that offer essential insights for existing mindfully, and not burning out. This fourth edition introduces the most up-to-date revision of the Fourteen Mindfulness Trainings, with fresh commentary on living in contemporary society.https://www.parallax.org/product/interbeing-4th-edition/#product-content

  • Money, Sex, War, Karma: Notes for a Buddhist Revolution In this, his most accessible work to date, Loy offers sharp and even shockingly clear presentations of oft-misunderstood Buddhist staples-the working of karma, the nature of self, the causes of trouble on both the individual and societal levels-and the real reasons behind our collective sense of "never enough," whether it's time, money, sex, security... even war. Loy's "Buddhist Revolution" is nothing less than a radical change in the ways we can approach our lives, our planet, the collective delusions that pervade our language, culture, and even our spirituality https://a.co/d/aGPFeJI
