Bodhicitta, the Awakening Mind Moon

Taking refuge in The Three Treasures, I vow to live a life of:

Not-Knowing, by giving up fixed ideas about ourselves and the universe

Bearing Witness to the joy and suffering of the world

Taking Action that arises from Not-Knowing and Bearing Witness

Three Tenets of a Zen Peacemaker

faith like falling water

stillness & ongoingness

complex as ecology

found community in tenderness

a wish fulfilled slowly
