Sitting together: a Quaker-Buddhist dialogue

January 16-18, 2009

Maitrisārā & Alex Wildwood

A chance to learn from the Buddhist teachings of bodhicitta and the Quaker experience of active engagement in the world. Sharing the practices of Tonglen meditation and Quaker worship (with time for discussion & reflection) we will explore how spiritual practice both supports and fuels our passionate desire for a peaceful, just and sustainable future for all.

Maitrisārā is secretary of the Network of Engaged Buddhists, a group who explore the connection between the transformation of self and world. Alex Wildwood is a Quaker who embraces Buddhist insights in his ecological activism.
