Buddhist Peace Fellowship

Buddhism teaches that the key to liberation from suffering is the cessation of craving. But how can we stop craving political justice, fairness, and transformation in a world rife with oppression? How can we abide in peace, while war and violence soak our culture through and through? Is it possible to love this world as it is, and work to change it? For over 40 years, Buddhist Peace Fellowship has been asking these questions, and taking compassionate action. Using a framework called Block, Build, Be, together at Creating Freedom Movements we'll explore a range of juicy, lively, spiritual-political paradoxes, inviting our whole selves to show up and simmer deeply in the process of liberation.
