Dharma Gaia - Gillian Coote speaking

Gillian Coote at DGF

On Friday night 25 April, Gillian Coote Roshi from the Sydney Zen Centre will be the speaker at the second Dharma Gaia forum. She will be speaking about her work as a bush regenerator. I managed to get to the first meeting and it was very interesting - the speaker was zen teacher Susan Murphy,  and I came away from the meeting with the clear understanding that buddhist practise in these times, the task of liberation, cannot just be about my own liberation. We are in a climate crisis.
