Inner and Outer Alignment: Talk

This week, Andrew explores Inner and Outer Alignment through the lens of two powerful Buddhist principles: hiri (inner conscience) and ottapa (awareness of impact on others). We will reflect on how we can live more authentically and ethically while addressing the impact of capitalism and systemic inequality on our ability to survive and stay true to our values. At its heart, this subject is a reminder that real well-being is about integrity, care, and the ongoing practice of aligning our actions with what matters most.Prompt: If you were to create an entity or entities (character, animal, whatever) to embody part of your inner conscious, what would it be?Talk segment that complements the sitting portion on Inner and Outer Alignment.
