Climate Crisis, Grief and Interbeing — a panel discussion

In this moving panel discussion from SAND 19 Zaya Bennazzo asks Thomas Hübl, Charles Eisenstein, Bayo Akomolafe and Cynthia Jurs to share their insights about the climate crisis, and our human response to it. After members of the audience offer examples of how climate change has affected them, the suggestion is made that what is happening here is in fact a funeral service, and what humanity is feeling is grief. There are rich presentations from the panelists, all of whom share the perspective that the issues we are facing arise from the attitude that planet earth is separate from us. The telling of myths and stories brings light to the discussion, which concludes that the beginning of the road to healing is the understanding that we are the planet.

Very disappointing to see that extreme political views are now being preached here rather than words of non-duality or considerations of oneness, however you wish to refer to it.

Whoever comments without respect to earth but justifies their consumerism... how shallow thinking...

The young persons was the great voice in the room, she is truth. The elders wallowing instead of action. Heal from within then heal outwardly. The shipibo healers biggest job has been helping the western healers Doctors whom were never taught to respect their own boundaries. Respect hope invoke hope inspire within breath out & do good.

The young soul crying, as no one has taught her to heal herself first instead of trying to carry the whole global responsibility. Young star seed love wants you to hold yourself & return to self compassion. You will blossom sing shine & pollinate.

U if Wis and other studies show all planets in our solar system heating up at the same time. It's bigger than us here.

This is cringy. I've watched over the years as the non-duality movement has become just another green political force. Nothing non-dual about it.
