Living Earth Youth Dialogues: The Living Earth Community and the Human Soul
November 1 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm PDT
In this workshop, Oliver Mesmer will explore what it means to be a part of a living community of sentient beings—a community of many species within the diverse kingdoms of life. His presentation will focus on what he has learned in his research with the Yale Forum on Religion and Ecology on topics such as the differentiated sentience of the more-than-human world, as well as ecological spirituality. Oliver will invite us into a discussion on how we might orient our perception, our actions, and even our lives around the paradigm that we each inhabit a particular niche within a global interdependent ecosystem.
