Our actions for the world are prayers: implicitly relevant, meaningful, and impermanent.

Welcome to One Earth Sangha, an EcoDharma network supporting a global community in the Path of Engaged Practice.

As ten thousand years of climate stability is ending, the call to develop inner stability has never been more clear.

A Conversation with Dr. Rima Vesely-Flad and Rhonda V. Magee

Online
Dr. Vesely-Flad’s latest book The Fire Inside, examines the writings of Lorde and Baldwin through a Dharmic lens, and discusses how two of America’s greatest literary voices reflect—and expand—Buddhism’s most timeless truths toward justice and liberation.

1st Friday Monthly

Online
The Secular Buddhist Network has a discussion group for those who wish to share their experiences of and discuss new possibilities for bringing secular Buddhist ideas, ethics, and practices to community groups and political movements. The group meets the first Friday of every month, at 1 pm US Eastern Time.

Trust, Surrender, and the Courage to Walk Toward Suffering

Online
Together, Lubna Masarwa and Thanissara will explore the shared spiritual terrain of trust, surrender, refuge, and compassionate presence through the lens of Islamic and Buddhist practice. Inspired by Tawakkul and Dharma teachings on relinquishment, this gathering opens a contemplative space to explore what it means to remain inwardly steady within a world marked by deep division and profound uncertainty.
Sponsored by the BESS Family Foundation, Earth Awareness Community Retreats are intended to foster community among those whose work and interests are focused on the intersection of mindfulness/meditation and climate change. Retreats will be held in 2025 – 2027 at four geographically dispersed retreat centers. Attendance at the retreats is free, but other costs are participant responsibilities.

There is a way to be a human being
that causes all life to thrive.
