Grounded in meditation practice and the skillful means of council, this gathering aims to be a holding space for contemplative witnessing, a space for discovery of something deeper within ourselves. It offers a coming together for people concerned with the climate crisis to find the space between burnout and bypass, a place to hold our “inner” climate, our storm of emotions and urgency.
The inner space of connection with others who feel the same thing. A sanctuary.
Each session will include meditation practice and a lhasang, a simple, earth based ritual. There will be extended time for council practice, or social meditation, where conversations can go deeper. Council practice is a way to extend our meditation practice in an intentional way of being together in dialogue, supporting each other in engaging genuinely with the climate crisis and everything it brings up.
We will close with a contemplation, an intention, an aspiration, or a way forward, and a dedication of merit.
