2019-06-28 Emptiness and Karma 66:01
Guy Armstrong
It may seem that the Buddha's teaching on emptiness is incompatible with his teaching on karma, which connects the result of an action with the same being who performed it. But actually, the two teachings need each other to make sense.

2019-06-27 How we can change our relationship with nature through our practice 50:34
Kate Munding
In preparation for this weekend, the climate emergency, our response to it as Buddhists and as human beings has been on my mind. I will give the talk related to these themes as well as on how we can change our relationship with nature through our practice to better connect with the reality we and our planet are facing. I know James just gave a talk last week on climate change, but I'm guessing this will offer a different approach and voice to this ongoing exploration.

The mature expression of hope includes three elements: the aspiration for manifesting our full potential, a trust that this is possible, and an energy that engages to serve this unfolding.
