We stand for climate justice
The Earth is our oldest ancestor—the original ground of refuge, nourishment, and belonging. Earth has held life through countless generations, offering soil, seed, shelter, water, and breath.
To honor Earth is to practice gratitude and responsibility. It is to remember that we are not separate from the natural world, but participants in a living web of interdependence. Every act of care—for a person, a community, or a place—is part of a larger practice of tending the conditions for life.
Our work is grounded in the understanding that personal well-being and planetary well-being are deeply connected. Healing is not separate from the world around us. We are shaped by the air we breathe, the water we drink, the land holding us, and the relationships that sustain our lives.
A bodhisattva practice
Climate justice is bodhisattva practice: a commitment to remain present with suffering rather than turning away.
In the face of ecological grief, uncertainty, and loss, we cultivate compassion, courage, and wise action. We listen to the Earth and to communities most impacted. We practice humility. We recognize that no one is free while any aspect of the living world is being harmed.
In all our work
Climate justice informs how we gather, teach, offer care, and build relationships. We practice —
Connecting personal healing with social and ecological healing.
Naming the specific grief of witnesses climate collapse.
Practicing care rooted in community rather than individual endurance.
Honoring Indigenous wisdom and place-based knowledge.
Exploring interdependence, simplicity, reciprocity, and right relationship
Imagining and building futures where all beings can flourish.
May we together offer protective care — the fierce love that a mother has for her only child — to Bodhisattva Mother Earth.
“Even as a mother at the risk of her life
Watches over and protects her only child,
So with a boundless mind should one cherish all living things.
Suffusing love over the entire world,
Above, below, and all around, without limit,
So let one cultivate an infinite good will toward the whole world.”
