What would it mean to live as a benefit and a blessing to all life?
Seeding a New Future
A Gathering with Diné Elder Pat McCabe (Woman Stands Shining)
You can feel things are changing in the world. And you want to be part of building what comes next, rather than bracing for it.
This gathering is for you if…
Many of us sense that the old way of living is coming apart, and that something new is asking to be built in its place. The question is how to meet these times, and what is being asked of each of us.
Across the world, Indigenous peoples offer Earth-based wisdom exactly for these times.
Pat McCabe (Weyakpa Najin Win, Woman Stands Shining) is a mother, grandmother, ceremonial leader and a voice for global peace. Of the Diné Nation, she was adopted into the Lakota spiritual way of life. On July 21st, we’re honoured to welcome her into conversation with Rachael Duffy and Michael Denmeade.
For Pat, the paradigm we live in is a choice. She invites us to step into a different way of being, one where our lives become a benefit and a blessing to all life, for those here now and those yet to come.
“How do I become that being, that human, whose presence and way of being supports and causes all other life to Thrive?”
