This session is invitation for white practitioners and others to join Vimalasara in a discussion on the theme of liberation, the central tenet of Buddhist teachings. No one is liberated until we are all liberated. What if we made explicit that Black Lives Matter was part of the Bodhisattva vow? How would that impact our practice? This offering will begin with a meditation imbued with compassion, preceded by a compassionate dialogue. Bring your questions, your doubts, your fears and inspiration.
With Vimalasara Mason-John recorded on September 20, 2020.
