Buddhistdoor View: In a Time of International Loss, What Is Our Duty of Care?
In a world fraught with division, the immigration crisis allows us to recognize our connections and practice our deepest values
Our world, our communities, and our very survival as a species are being challenged by imminent crises on multiple fronts: environmental collapse, societal and economic inequality, the rise of nationalism and authoritarianism, warfare and conflict, and the ongoing pandemic, to name a few.
Our special issue for 2022 seeks to examine these issues and the ways in which Buddhists can respond, both internally as a part of their personal practice and externally as socially engaged Buddhists, for the benefit of all sentient beings.
The unequivocal need for a profound transformation of our temporal and spiritual lives—the ways in which we live; how we perceive and interact with the world around us—has never been more urgent. We hope that you will join us in sharing and exploring the solutions and changes that are needed to manifest a more compassionate, caring, and sustainable global civilization that recognizes and respects the innate and fundamental interconnectedness of all life.
This page will be updated regularly throughout 2022.
