Turning Wheel: More than a Magazine



Turning Wheel Media:

The Hub of a Movement


Turning Wheel Media is an online home for activists and thinkers, writers and readers, a place to bring Buddhist teachings into conversation with the world. The historic journal of socially engaged Buddhism, Turning Wheel Media, has transformed.

We're carrying our legacy of in-depth writing and innovative art into an interactive platform where writers and readers can join the conversation between Buddhism and social justice. Turning Wheel Media brings a sharp focus to urgent matters of peace, social justice, environmental activism, and dharma practice.
