In Room(s): Main Shrine Room

with Marguerite Drescher, Adam Lobel, Noel McLellan, Sera Thompson & Ryan Watson

“Thus a good human society was created on this earth....”

Social transformation is a profound personal and collective journey. It requires shifting our own reference points and assumptions. It requires taking radical responsibility for our world, our ecosystem, and our society. And it requires revolutionary changes in our political and economic structures. Shifting the destructive trajectory of our global society would take a miracle. Miracles happen.

Please join us in this exploration of personal and political practices to confront and transform materialism and consumerism within our own hearts, in our daily lives, and in our society. This experiential workshop will include meditation and contemplation, and creative dialogue practices which invite deep collective wisdom. Throughout our time together we will strive to enter into pro-active and generative conversations about the big picture social challenges and structures that we all participate in creating, and ways we can create new patterns that embody our highest aspirations for our planet and society. The program will end with a social celebration, 8-11pm on Saturday. Details to be confirmed.

Generosity policy applies: pay what you can afford. ◊Please bring your own lunch.◊
