Now is the Time to Engage

Kristina Weaver gave this dharma talk on May 30, 2017 at the Insight Meditation Community of Charlottesville. Kristina reflects on Memorial Day and the recent events surrounding Charlottesville's Lee Park with the aim of providing encouragement for meditators to embrace a socially engaged practice. By learning to examine conflict with care, equanimity, and compassion -- and to anticipate the messiness of social change -- we can begin again and again in our efforts to support justice, peace, connection, and harmlessness for ourselves and others.
