Can We Be at Peace with the World We Have?
Changing the Dream Symposium
hosted by the Triple Ecology Collective
Ecosystem loss, climate change, growing refugee flows, economic inequality and impending financial collapse are unprecedented challenges which concern so many of us. Our hearts are grieving for what we have already lost.
Join us as we explore rarely examined assumptions we hold about the Human experience and our relationship with the rest of Nature and the Cosmos. We’ll ask:
– Can we hold the tragedy of a modern world in one hand and an inspiring vision for the future in the other?
– Is it possible to transform fear, anger, despair and grief into creativity, forgiveness, compassion and joy?
The aim of the gathering is not to find answers, but to find support and explore ways of responding which honour the ongoing validity of the questions.
Inspiration for this Symposium came from Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh’s book ‘The World we Have’.
