Changing the World
Life Purpose and Activism
Weds 11th September 2024
This was a personal talk about the deeper, wider stuff around activism, creativity, working for justice, changing society, planetary healing, resolution and nudging things along, in any and all of the spheres of activity we might choose to work in, local or global.
Observations and anecdotes about playing our part in change and the unfolding of history - about us, the helpers, the people seeking to do something to benefit the wider whole.
Palden covered real-life questions concerning personal risk, life-purpose, commitment, psycho-emotional issues, burn-out, energy-management, holding true to our beliefs, and tricks for getting through. What is this all for? What is our true aim? What constitutes success? How's about when it all goes wrong or takes far too long?
I have done decades of work in community and social activism, planetary consciousness work and working in conflict zones, with feet straddling the lifestyle, political, green and spiritual camps. This talk was about helping the world as part of our spiritual path, fulfilling the Great Work - and the toughest part, making it a life's work and staying with it over time.
