“What’s Next?” – A Message from Mushim Ikeda

In times of chaos and overwhelming injustice, how do we stay grounded? How do we align our spiritual practice with our deepest values to create meaningful change?

These questions are at the heart of EBMC’s Unshakable: Rooted in Strength for Liberation campaign—and today, we’re honored to share a powerful reflection from Mushim Patricia Ikeda, EBMC Founding and Core Teacher.

In this short video, Mushim offers a roadmap for resilience:

Her words remind us that resilience is not just about enduring—it’s about adapting, creating, and finding clarity in the midst of uncertainty. At EBMC, we are committed to being a sanctuary where this kind of resilience can thrive, a space where all are welcome to practice, grow, and find refuge.

But we can’t do this work alone.

This month, we’re aiming to welcome 30 new recurring donors or inspire current donors to increase their monthly contributions. Your support ensures that EBMC can continue to offer radical inclusivity, compassionate teachings, and a home for collective liberation.

Will you join us in this commitment?
