Via One Earth Sangha // On June 23, Explore EcoDharma with Kevin Gallagher
Join our June 23 EcoDharma Exploration
with Kevin Gallagher
What does it mean to be in right relations
with those who deny the realities of accelerating ecological
degradation, social injustice, and individual suffering or, worse, who
actively exacerbate those interwoven crises? Whether because we share
close personal ties with those who are dismissive of the crises of our
time, because we are actively engaged in the work of participating in
and growing movements seeking to mitigate those issues, or simply
because they occupy such prominent places in our cultural landscape, the
“bad guys” are an inescapable part of life for many.
This unavoidable interdependence raises a host of issues, in both our
personal practice and our roles as advocates and activists attempting to
reduce suffering in the world at large.
Join Kevin Gallagher on this deep dive into the topic, where we we will
view the predicament of “bad guys” through a range of lenses – Buddhist,
evolutionary, developmental, psychological, strategic – with the hopes
of gaining new insights into how we might better relate, on behalf of
both people and planet, to those who cause so much harm.
