What can we do to help ourselves and our country? Is personal salvation possible in a destroyed environment? What can we do with our clarity and calmness?
Thank you so much for this Peter. I especially appreciate your emphasis on the intention to be kind. Whether this is the end of the world or the beginning of something new, it seems like the stance we have in response is one of the few areas we have any control, and if there's a choice, kindness is really the only thing that makes any sense.
As a neighbour to the North, I appreciate your candour on politics in the United States for many reasons. I came to listen to your talks on Zen Buddhism meditation/philosophy originally but have to say that I also now return to listen to what insights you provide to the rising tides across the border which affects us all. om shanti shanti shanti 🙏
THanks, I wrote two books Things As It Is: Vernacular Zen, about translating Buddhism into American/Human idioms, loosening the Japanese gift-wrapping, and Engaged with Things As It Is: A Buddhist Perspective on Politics. They'll both be out next Fall.
@@HoshoPeterCoyoteDharma Thank you for the heads up! I anticipate their release. The phrase "things as it is" sent me down a rabbit hole...much gratitude 🙏
Thank you Peter. I dropped off facebook 2 years ago but am considering rejoining to get access to future Dharma talks if you continue them. I am inspired my friend.
Thank You.

This is helpful to me Peter
Thank you
