Responding to An Unjust World

with Milla Gregor

7-10 am PST / 10 am-1 pm EST / 3-6 pm GMT / 4-7 pm CET

Discover how to stay present and responsive with clarity, compassion, and confidence

It’s difficult to respond to the reality of our unjust, burning world. It can feel easier to numb out, bringing the risk of our unwitting collusion with the systems that create suffering.

Yet, as practitioners, we know that staying present to reality is the heart of dharma. So how do we respond skillfully to an unjust world without losing ourselves in despair, distraction, or the delusion of individualism?

Join Milla Gregor for a powerful Day of Practice, where we’ll explore ways to stay grounded and awake as we respond to the world’s climate, justice and ecological crises.

Milla will share ideas and practices from the dharma and elsewhere that can support us in turning away from turning away – and towards responsiveness, solidarity and action.

We’ll start with an introduction and some reflection on these themes, before exploring a few of them in more depth through journalling, discussion and playing some dharma games together. We can usefully approach even serious topics with lightness and curiosity, taking refuge in the support and wisdom of our community.

Day of Practice - Milla Gregor - Feb 22, 2025

In this session, you will:

  • Develop your ability to respond to the world’s injustices and crises with the support of practice and community
  • Explore Milla’s Seven Paths of Responsiveness, developed through years of contemplation and action, as well as the experiences of others who share a commitment to both
  • Deepen your understanding of how dharma practice can support and inspire social and political change as well as personal and interpersonal change
  • Build your confidence by trying out some of the Seven Paths of Responsiveness through dharma games and discussion, with the option to take some experimental action within the session itself

What is Day of Practice?

Sangha Live’s 3-hour, LIVE Day of Practice allows for you to drop in deeper, develop your meditation skills, and reset your intentions through sustained sitting.

Days of Practice includes longer periods of meditation, interspersed with wise teachings, an interactive Q&A with our teacher, and more.

Replay access will be available to all registrants within 48 hours of the live session.

How is Day of Practice different from Sangha Live’s Daily/Sunday classes?

Our shorter Daily Meditation (60 mins) and Sunday Sangha (90 mins) programs emphasize dharma teachings, while our longer Days of Practice (3 hours) emphasize development of meditation practice.

Daily practice is crucial for watering seeds of mindfulness, but extended periods of deep attention such as these, away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, can be uniquely fruitful.

Cost

Day of Practice is offered on a sliding scale basis, with a suggested rate of $35. We wholeheartedly welcome all to practice with us; no one turned away for lack of funds.
