Buddhist Teachings for Deep Ecology: Part One
Buddhist Teachings for Deep Ecology: Part One
Wednesday, Nov. 18, 7-8:15 p.m.
It is painfully evident that the life support systems of planet Earth are in crisis. The web of life for all species, including humans, is in peril. Buddhist teachings and Deep Ecology agree that we humans will not change the behaviors causing such suffering unless we transform the sense of our identity. Such transformation brings the capacity to act with wise compassion; we now realize we are Earth protecting itself. During this webinar, we explore this Buddhist wisdom and its overlap with Deep Ecology. The awakening of humanity to liberate our planetary suffering depends on our personal awakening. Paula Hirschboeck, a Soto Zen Buddhist teacher and priest from Madison, WI, will facilitate. Attendance is required at this session to participate in session two (Dec. 2).
