Kerri Welch: "So much of our time is spent in the deadness of indoors, facing a screen....The mind's power [is] to travel in time & space - & its peril, to lose sensuous engaged experience w/ the body & the immediacy of the world. People & nature draw us into...the present moment." bit.ly/4hkaVA6

KristalParks: "It is time now to abandon our #speciesism & remove the chains of terror that most #animals feel b/c of our use, abuse, beating, & eating them. To harm these, even the least of them, is like doing it to #Christ Himself." bit.ly/4hkaVA6

We are witnessing the death of institutions & systems, & an era that is not serving us nor our Mother Earth well any longer. Nothing short of what @davidkorten.bsky.social calls “A New Enlightenment” will suffice in activating the energies & insights needed at this important time. bit.ly/3Ql5rsN

We include #action in our vow to become lovers & defenders of #SacredEarth because we are in a time when #contemplation alone is insufficient in addressing the needs of our times and the more-than-human world. bit.ly/3Ql5rsN

The #OrderOfTheSacredEarth's #vow to respect & defend our sacred Earth could integrate core values underlying the vows that our ancestors often undertook (e.g., marriage, or monastics' vows of poverty, chastity, obedience, stability) , applying them from a modern perspective. bit.ly/4k1KUr6

Resistance Takes Many Forms - Daily Meditations with Matthew Fox
The purpose of the daily meditations, as promised when we launched six years ago, is to assist in “praying the news” and not just watching it. This imperative has increased as we watch the terror of o...

The world needs a profound expansion of human #consciousness to move us beyond #Tribalism to a consciousness of the whole. The #vow we share in common is a vow of #service that supports those in service to Earth and one another. bit.ly/4k1KUr6

In times like ours, so marked by apocalyptic goings-on, it is important that we not succumb to despair, non-action, or action-reaction. We need to go deeper w/in our own souls & w/in the genius of our species to find anew what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called “the #belovedcommunity.” bit.ly/3Ql5rsN

“I promise to be the best lover & defender of Mother Earth that I can be.” This sacred pledge is a wisdom practice we can continually refine & develop as we evolve, underscoring the principles thru which we operate & the values we strive to fulfill. bit.ly/3Ql5rsN

We are all beginners in this sacred work, both inner & outer. We are not here to judge but to support each other in our efforts incl. transforming ourselves beyond the anthropocentric consciousness we have all inherited & transforming the institutions that buttress our culture. bit.ly/3Ql5rsN

The world does not need a new #church, a new #religion or even a reshuffling of our old religions. It needs a movement of people of varied #belief & #non-belief systems who share one sacred #vow: to preserve #MotherEarth & become the best lovers & defenders of the Earth they can be. bit.ly/3Ql5rsN

Our vision is to create a container for connection and networking with other mystic warriors who are carrying on the work as protectors & defenders of our sacred #MotherEarth.
Next Tuesday, join us! bit.ly/3IMVdRJ

JenniferListug: "I may not have any power over the trajectory of our human condition, the tides of the sea, or the hour of the setting sun. But I do have power over my energy, my century or so of life on this beautiful planet, & what I devote that time to. As do you. As do we all." bit.ly/4hkaVA6

Networking with other #Earth-Honoring individuals and organizations doing similar work and bringing such #Earth-Protecting activists together to develop a deeper spiritual grounding will be part of the shared work & offering of the #OrderOfTheSacredEarth bit.ly/3Ql5rsN

Many of us identify as #SpiritualButNotReligious.” It is possible for some people to be both #spiritual & #religious, *&* effort is needed thru #presence, #intention, & #directaction. Why action? #Contemplation needs to feed action in times like ours when democracide & #ecocide reign. bit.ly/3Ql5rsN

SkylarWilson: Why not try to bring together a loosely held, diverse group of people into authentic relationship in order to self-organize around similar core values that support our evolution into an Earth-honoring culture? bit.ly/4ghrnjn

Working toward the good does not mean attacking what has been. Nonviolent communication is a powerful tool stemming from the realization that we can create change for ourselves & each other w/o fighting. The warrior does this thru staying present while modeling the way forward. bit.ly/4hkaVA6
