Joanna Macy: On how to prepare internally for WHATEVER comes next

19 April 2016 3 Comments

"Yes, it looks bleak. But you are still alive now. You are alive with all the others, in this present moment. And because the truth is speaking in the work, it unlocks the heart. And there’s such a feeling and experience of adventure. It’s like a trumpet call to a great adventure. In all great adventures there comes a time when the little band of heroes feels totally outnumbered and bleak, like Frodo in Lord of the Rings or Pilgrim in Pilgrim’s Progress. You learn to say ‘It looks bleak. Big … Continue reading

Realize You are the Earth | Thich Nhat Hanh

27 October 2015 Leave a Comment

"You carry Mother Earth within you. She is not outside of you. Mother Earth is not just your environment. In that insight of inter-being, it is possible to have real communication with the Earth, which is the highest form of prayer. In that kind of relationship you have enough love, strength and awakening in order to change your life. "Fear, separation, hate and anger come from the wrong view that you and the Earth are two separate entities, that the Earth is only the environment. That is a … Continue reading

Another Way Of Seeing: We Don’t Own the Land. The Land Owns Us.

3 October 2015 Leave a Comment

"Bob Randall, a Yankunytjatjara elder and traditional owner of Uluru (Ayer's Rock), explains how the connectedness of every living thing to every other living thing is not just an idea but a way of living. This way includes all beings as part of a vast family and calls us to be responsible for this family and care for the land with unconditional love and responsibility." Watch video

Eckhart Tolle: How can we address our ecological situation?

27 August 2015 1 Comment

"Begin with a peaceful heart and stay present. There is more to the planet than we realise. The planet is a living being, pervaded by an intelligent energy field. We will not destroy the planet; we will destroy ourselves. When the planet feels threatened by humans, it will eliminate humans. Before the planet takes action, we need to take conscious action, but with peace in our hearts and without fear." Watch video

The Great Teaching Work of Thomas Berry

19 August 2015 Leave a Comment

"Throughout his life and writings Thomas Berry was involved in a great work of teaching, one aspect of which was his well-known book, Great Work: Our Way into the Future. "We need new means of cultivating ourselves if we are to live differently on the earth. Developing and telling the new story is one component of establishing such cultivation. But the grand sweep of the longed-for cultivation is found only in cosmology. The universe contains a mystery of presence. Cosmology presents this … Continue reading

A Multi-Religious Call to Protect the Earth

27 June 2015 Leave a Comment

Respectful of our religious differences, Religions for Peace calls on religious believers and all men and women of good will to an urgent and sustained response to the challenge of climate change. In 1997 the Kyoto Protocol failed to reduce carbon emissions. In 2009 we failed again with the Copenhagen Accord.

We have three chances to change the world for the better in 2015

18 April 2015 Leave a Comment

"In the year that world leaders will meet three times to set goals for sustainable development, planetary boundaries can frame our choices. "We live in an era of great contrasts. Never before have we faced catastrophic environmental risks on a planetary level, and seldom has there been such potential for innovation to allow us to avert serious risks and transform the world. Decisions made now will have profound impacts on the Earth for centuries to come. This calls for a new logic; abundance … Continue reading

Envisioning a future with less doom and gloom: opportunities for the next generation of optimists

19 March 2015 Leave a Comment

"When it comes to stories about the fate of the earth, headlines are usually dominated by tales of gloom and doom. And there’s certainly a great deal to be depressed about: global temperatures hit their highest levels ever last year, oceans are growing so warm and acidic that fisheries could be lost, and food and water systems are in decline. "Experts say that the developed countries need to reduce carbon by 3% per year. Future 500 President Bill Shireman believes that’s a big opportunity for … Continue reading

"We cannot change the world unless we change the way we see ourselves. "We are in the midst of a global crisis of perspective. We have forgotten the undeniable truth that everything is connected. PLANETARY is a provocative and breathtaking wakeup call, a cross continental, cinematic journey, that explores our cosmic origins and our future as a species. PLANETARY is a poetic and humbling reminder that it's time to shift our perspective. PLANETARY asks us to rethink who we really are, to … Watch video
