Online: Selflessness, Skillfulness, and Service – Three Ethical Commitments In Indra’s Net
with Ayo Yetunde
Wednesday, February 8th, 2023 | 7:00pm – 9:00pm ET
As millions of people, at home and abroad, clamor for disenfranchisement and violence as a path towards getting and maintaining political power, how might we utilize our Buddhist philosophies and practices to contribute to a more enlightened society?
In this dharma talk, Pamela Ayo Yetunde, Community Dharma Leader, pastoral counselor and author of Casting Indra’s Net: Fostering Spiritual Kinship and Community, offers some reflections on “re-purposing” Buddhism explicitly for civility.
