Film Festival! Saving Mother Earth and Her Beings, One Acre at a Time

From San Francisco Buddhist Center on Wed, 31 May, 2023 - 00:56

In honor of Buddhist Action Month, please join us for the opening night of our Film Festival! We are raising funds for Karuna-USA to help reduce the suffering of many thousands of beings. One hundred percent of funds raised will go to Karuna USA’s climate change projects in three countries: India, Bangladesh and Nepal.

We have four inspiring, highly rated and fascinating films on the theme of climate justice and recovery and adaptation efforts happening now.

Hi all,

I thought you would want to know that Joanna Macy, who I know is a great inspiration for many of us, is in hospital with pneumonia. She is 95 now but apparently is fighting the infection.

Please think of her in your meditation, prayers, metta.
