We convene spiritually and politically engaged individuals from multiple lineages, Buddhist and otherwise, to explore practices to be in wise and compassionate relationship to ourselves, each other, and movements. Our convenings and programs are led by and lift up the voices and priorities of Black, Indigenous, heritage Buddhists, and people of color who share our commitment to regenerative living economy, queer feminism, and racial justice.

The Buddhist Peace Fellowship’s purpose is to serve collective liberation through connecting Dharma to the current moment.

Refuge Circle Returns!

Refuge Circle is a multi-lineage, spiritual-political space for us to ground in contemplative practice, with community, especially in times of grief, loss, and rage at ongoing harm from systems of oppression. It’s a space to share resources to support the freedom of all beings, and deepen our commitment to practicing peace and interrupting harm.

We invite all who would feel nourished by this space to join us Monday through Thursday at 9am PT/ 12pm ET. + 20 minute practice guided by politicized teachers and healers, Buddhist and dharmically aligned. + 10 minutes of collective action, calling or emailing our representatives

We continue to center our practice in support of a liberated Palestine, and call on our US representatives to enact an arms embargo on the state of Israel. In addition, we extend our awareness and action in solidarity with the people of Haiti, Myanmar, Sudan, Tigray, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the US, and beyond, with the understanding that our struggles are inherently interconnected, and so is our freedom.

Photo of the ofrenda we created to grounded our recent board and staff retreat, led by brilliant facilitator Kimi Mojica (pictured). A tray draped in maroon fabric rests on a white rug, with small bowls surrounding it and a person preparing to add another offering, The tray has been ritually filled with earth-based items from our kitchens and apothecaries: apples, chrysanthemums, cascarilla, rosemary, dirt, lentils, honey, breastmilk, and rice.
