Are Buddhist practice and protest at odds with each other, or is protest an inevitable outgrowth of authentic practice in these troubled times?

77 There are no promises When we are training in the art of peace, we are not given any promises that because of our noble intentions everything will be okay. In fact, there are no promises of fruition at all. Instead, we are encouraged to simply look deeply at joy and sorrow, at laughing and crying, at hoping and fearing, at all that lives and dies. We learn that what truly heals is gratitude and tenderness. -- Pema Chodron

Walnut ink calligraphy on Bristol board beside a teapot with a spout casting a shadow underlining the text
In the Buddha, his Teaching,
and the Order most excellent
I take my refuge
until Enlightenment is reached.
By the merit of generosity
and other good deeds,
May I attain Buddhahood
for the sake of all that lives.
