In this very special program, I will join engaged Buddhist teacher Roshi Joan Halifax, climate diplomat Christiana Figueres (online), beloved writer and environmentalist Terry Tempest Williams, and writer, historian, and activist Rebecca Solnit to explore awakened action and the vows which sustain us.  

“Awakened action” is a powerful place to affirm our vows to not only find beauty in a broken world but create beauty in the world we find, actualize wild mercy, and let us discover that our relatives are everywhere.

Please join us onsite or online for this plunge into awakened action through deep exploration of history and possibility, the power of practice and art, and the generativity of communities of courage and care. Onsite registration is limited, and early registration is advised.
