A strong set of short talks as befits the title to start us off on day two of the 2016 Triratna International Council. 

Parami introduces Akuppa challenging us to examine our responses to the possible realities of climate change; Viveka, asking us with great feeling to be curious about the possibilities for diversity amid the realities of deep-seated conditioning around racial bias; and Yashosagar inviting us to embrace the Buddha’s vision of the Dhamma as an adequate response to great suffering, as exemplified by Dr. Ambedkar.

Many thanks for this. Thank you, Akuppa, for this excellent short talk.

Just checking whether Akuppa’s talk can be shared with non- Order members? It would be very interesting to the LBC Transforming Self and World Group I think. Thank you, Akashadevi

Hi Akashadevi! Yes, that’s fine. You can always tell Order-only posts on the site as they’ll have an orange ‘OM’ symbol next to them.
