SUMMARY:Liberation Dharma in the Time of the Great Unraveling
DESCRIPTION:EBMC Benefit with Joanna Macy & Ty Blair\nWhen we face together what’s happening to our world–from climate chaos to permanent war–we can open to the liberation to be found in the Buddha Dharma.  Even as familiar systems unravel around us\, we find the vitalizing power of Sangha.  Grounded in the fact of our mutual belonging\, the Sangha helps deconstruct the separate self while incubating patterns of generosity and justice to transform the broader culture. \nPlease join us for a rare appearance by Joanna Macy in her 88th year to discuss the liberatory potential of the Dharma. Ty Blair will join Joanna as a speaker for the evening\, and our program will include poetry from Ann Marie Davis\, movement with Amana Johnson\, an interactive process from the Work That Reconnects\, and chanting to close. \nThe event will be ASL interpreted and wheelchair accessible. \nEBMC operates using a gift economics model\, which means that all of our regular programs are offered at no set fee and participants are asked to give to the extent that they are able for the good of the community. In order to support this unique approach\, which means that no one is ever turned away for lack of financial means\, we ask that you purchase your ticket at the highest end of the scale that you can afford. \nFundraising events such as this are the only time we charge an entrance fee. We offer “Generosity Tickets” for those who are not able to purchase a ticket. If you would like to buy a ticket to support someone else to attend\, please click on “Generosity Ticket” and choose an amount to donate. We will share it with someone who would like to attend. \nWe thank you for your generosity! \nIf you have questions please contact Cassandra@eastbaymeditation.org.
