Dr. David Loy - Reconnecting with Nature and our Inner being | Our Gift to the Earth

Описание: Our guest today is Dr David Loy, Professor of Buddhist and Comparative Philosophy, writer, and teacher in the Zen tradition of Japanese Buddhism.

In this interview with Scott Snibbe, he discusses the necessity of engaging with the world and transcending duality as part of one’s contemplative practice; how Buddhism and other contemplative traditions change in response to the needs of the contemporary world; and how to respond appropriately to the challenges of our time, without falling into the extremes of indifference or despair.

They also discuss the need to deepen our relationship with and love for Nature and wilderness; how personal transformation is necessary to enable collective growth; and how Buddhism and other contemplative teachings can help us face what Noam Chomsky called "the most dangerous moment ever in human history".
