I am because we are: creating beloved community for the inside out

“I am because we are” is a traditional saying from the African Ubuntu tradition from which we draw inspiration for the day. We all yearn to find and engage with others in spaces of deep meaning and heart-felt belonging, where we are each doing our own work in authentic connection with one another.
This is the ideal of beloved community. Our dharma practice provides a crucible where we hold the tension between our ideals and what is happening now, which sometimes feels very far from our ideals.How do we show up for ourselves and others with an attitude of openness and curiosity, willing to see clearly the parts of us that are both longing for freedom and those still in the shadows, confused, or actively resisting change? This question is relevant to both how we work internally and also how we engage in beloved community. It is the ground from which true inclusivity can take root, grow and flourish, creating beloved community from the inside out.

Based in London, Singhashri is an inspiring, creative and articulate Dharma teacher. Read more about her here: https://www.radicalembrace.org/about. We will be asking for donations for Singhashri during the day retreat as she earns her main income from teaching retreats.
