In this powerful talk, meditation teacher Arisika Razak describes how the events in Washington, DC on January 6th resurfaced trauma from her days as a civil rights activist in the 60’s. Even though we may feel helpless in the wake of events like these, just bearing witness can be a powerful and important practice to affect change and cultivate healing and resilience.

Join Arisika on Wednesday, August 3rd, 2022 from 7:00pm – 9:00pm ET for an evening discussion, “Ungendering the Heart“, exploring how the Buddha’s teachings known as the Brahma Viharas can provide an antidote to patriarchal assumptions about “male” and “female” behavior, reminding us that these constructions are culturally scripted rather than biologically based – and they can provide a sense of freedom and wholeness that is both modern and timeless.
