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.

β€œOur 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
