"If there is Right Mindfulness, there must be Wrong Mindfulness. Wrong Mindfulness is where mindfulness is separate from the rest of the Eight-Fold Path. Where mindfulness is separate from Right Action or Right Livelihood." https://plumvillage.app/what-is-mcmindfulness/ #Dharma #Interbeing #Mindfulness #Meditation #PlumVillage #BuddhaGang #EngagedBuddhism #RecoveryDharma #SanghaInTheStreets @dharma @engagedbuddhism @bodhisattvaway @buddhagang @recoverydharma @plumvillage

When the Buddha was asked to describe his experience of awakening he said, “What I have awoken to is deep, quiet and excellent. But,” he continues, “People love their place. It’s hard for people who love, delight and revel in the fixed views and places of absolute certainty, to see interdependence.” https://michaelstoneteaching.com/remaining-human-a-buddhist-perspective-on-occupy-wall-street/

> The violence of the system is much more destructive, much more harmful, although it is well hidden. We call it institutional violence. By calling ourselves nonviolent we are against all violence, but we are first against institutional violence. --Thich Nhat Hanh

> If we value the interdependence of all life, and if we see that our body is dependent on the health of our rivers and ecosystems, then we must recognize that to be silent and indifferent is to be complicit with corporate violence.

"The incoming Trump administration also aims to limit federal agency power regarding social welfare . . . The situation warrants not only a strong defense but also an offense that reimagines federalism by building state collective power through interstate compacts." https://nonprofitquarterly.org/how-states-can-link-up-to-support-human-rights/

"Defending against police state weaponization is imperative. Legal action, resistance, sanctuary, and new underground railroads are emergency initiatives needed to shelter and safeguard the lives of immigrants, women, and transgender people—the risk of violence against scapegoat groups will only increase.

“There comes a time when all life on Earth is in danger. At that time great powers have arisen, barbarian powers, and although they waste their wealth in preparations to annihilate each other, they have much in common. Among the things these barbarians have in common are weapons of unfathomable devastation and death and technologies that lay waste to the world." #JoannaMacy https://people.umass.edu/jgerber/ShambhalaWorker.htm

1\🧵 Sangha in the Streets (SITS!) began in Fall 2011 as the #contemplative wing of Occupy Wall Street, also known as "Occupy the Present Moment." A resource for those seeking to connect meditation practice with collective liberation. #SanghaInTheStreets #SITS #OccupyWallStreet #Occupy
