Opening ritual at Aloka Vihara for Earth Care Week. Earth Care Week is about waking up to the impact we are having on this beautiful planet. Taking it in, feeling the anger and grief and letting that motivate us to change. Our Earth Care Mandala shows the many good things we receive every day to sustain our lives and support our practice.
Huffington Post features an article of James Baraz on ‘Buddhists Respond to Climate Change’.
