The Burning House: A Buddhist response to the climate and ecological emergency

The Burning House: A Buddhist response to the climate and ecological emergency with Shantigarbha

Since Shantigarbha heard Greta Thunberg tell the European Parliament to act as if our house is on fire, he’s been fascinated by the connection between our current climate and ecological emergency and the parable of the Burning House from the White Lotus Sutra. What can the parable tell us about how to deal with our current predicament? In what sense is our current predicament a crisis of empathy?

Join us for a 2 hour workshop with input from the White Lotus Sutra and other texts, guided reflections and a space for mourning.
