Dharma Talk: Awakening in an Age of Ecological Crisis

  • Danforth Studios 525 Danforth Street Portland, ME, 04102 United States (map)

How do we cultivate qualities such as stillness, effortlessness, and selflessness in the midst of embodied action? Freedom of the heart in the midst of deep grief? Joy in the midst of great uncertainty and instability? This evening's dharma talk and discussion will draw on classical and contemporary Buddhist teachings to contemplate how we may deepen in our practice and embody the qualities of awakening as we embrace the truth of our ecological crisis.

Karin Meyers is a Buddhist Studies scholar and currently a Retreat Support Fellow at the Insight Meditation Society.
