In the still small but growing field of Ecodharma, with a few exceptions, modern Vajrayana communities seem relatively quiet. Why might this be? We will explore the body, speech, and mind of a Vajrayana approach to ecological loss, climate change, and the sacredness of our living planet.
Adam Lobel, PhD, practices at the threshold of ecologies, Buddhist-inspired meditation and philosophy, and psycho-social political change. Adam has been a teacher of Buddhism for more than twenty years, is a scholar-practitioner of philosophy and religion, focusing on Dzogchen Tibetan Buddhism and contemporary ecological theory. Adam teaches Ecopsychology and a critical style of contemplative training that seeks to avoid enclosure in neoliberal mindfulness while disclosing effortless awareness. He is part of a network of people exploring what he calls Four Fields of contemplative practices. He lives in Pittsburgh, PA with his family where he protects lands from the petrochemical industry.
