The theme of the retreat was the Four Samgrahavastus: generosity (dana), affectionate speech, beneficial activity and exemplification.
The Buddha taught the Four Samgrahavastus as means of unification of the Sangha. As Buddhists concerned about the Climate and Ecological Emergencies, how can we make use of these teachings to connect with and care for all life?
This weekend led by Shantigarbha, Sanghajata and an experienced Triratna Earth Sangha team included meditation, ritual, optional group discussion, workshops and Dharma input. All to help us learn to live united as one community and care better for the earth and for ourselves.
