Report from the Field.
It’s been about 10 days of mostly consistent rain @Northern CA coast. The forest, and inhabitants, know how to abide. It’s their Shamatha practice. Observing these forest lessons, and this morning - prasad. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Sunshine! Every bird is in motion!

Report from the Field.
Seems to me the letting go is the central practice of low impact living. During a radical move, bring Arnica cream.

Report from the Field. The ocean is over beyond the trees, and it brings in the fog. The branches of the trees all moving ever so slightly pulling the moisture into the forest. Cooler, too. Rain coming this week.

How are you doing? • Nikayla Jefferson Might we all have more to gain, rather than lose, in making the choice to lead with our truest, most unedited selves? 🌏

✨ “How are you doing?”
Most of us take the safe route: “I’m good.”

In her latest piece, Nikayla Jefferson asks what might happen if we risked more—if vulnerability became our offering in this time of polycrisis.

Promotional graphic for Bhikkhu Bodhi’s article “Protecting Human Dignity from the Threat of Moral Nihilism.” A tree grows from water under a gray sky, bordered by a rough white paintbrush texture. Overlay text highlights the title, author, and quote: “Solidarity flows from a recognition of the essential unity of all people, the understanding that all human beings wish to be well, happy, and safe.”

“What kind of society can sustain human dignity today?”

In a bold keynote, Bhikkhu Bodhi names the forces of moral nihilism and calls for a world grounded in solidarity and justice.

A red fox sits peacefully in a golden field of tall grasses, gazing to the right with a calm, attentive expression. Overlay text reads: “On Being the Great Turning. ‘Being a part of the Great Turning is not hanging out in the stands of a soccer stadium asking which team’s going to win. It’s asking which team do I want to be a part of, and that it’s getting off the stands into the game, playing all out no matter what the scoreboard says. So that’s the Great Turning, that’s what it is, it’s a choice.’ – Jessica Serrante.”

“It’s not about who’s winning—it’s about where I choose to show up.”

In We Are the Great Turning, Jess Serrante invites us into the quiet courage of participation.
