SUMMARY:Marrying Indigenous Wisdom and Scientific Knowledge: Reimagining the Human Place in Nature
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation with Robin Wall Kimmerer as she helps us rethink\, reimagine and\, renarrate our relationship to the sacred and the natural world. Can the objective\, data-driven approach of science be enriched by non-anthropocentric spiritual worldviews? As a botanist and a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation\, Dr. Kimmerer draws on both indigenous wisdom and scientific knowledge to enrich and animate our understanding of the natural world. This expansive way of seeing and relating to creation privileges regeneration and reciprocity\, and offers novel solutions for ecological restoration and climate change resilience. \nDr. Kimmerer will be joined in conversation with Union faculty member John Thatamanil\, and Geraldine Ann Patrick Encina\, Scholar in Residence for Union’s Center for Earth Ethics. \n**WATCH video of the event here**\nAbout Robin Wall Kimmerer:\nDr. Kimmerer is a mother\, plant ecologist\, writer and SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor at the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse\, New York. She serves as the founding Director of the Center for Native Peoples and the Environment whose mission is to create programs which draw on the wisdom of both indigenous and scientific knowledge for our shared goals of sustainability. Her research interests include the role of traditional ecological knowledge in ecological restoration and the ecology of mosses. In collaboration with tribal partners\, she and her students have an active research program in the ecology and restoration of plants of cultural significance to Native people. Read More. \nAbout The Insight Project:\nThe Insight Project is a new multi-year program series that explores modern conceptions of theology and spirituality through a diverse array of thought-provoking lectures\, screenings\, performances\, and on-stage conversations.

SUMMARY:Rites and Rituals - Mona Polacca and Marina Abramović at The Rubin Museum
DESCRIPTION:Our world is shaped by ritual. Hopi/Havasupai/Tewa Grandmother Mona Polacca meets with the “grandmother of performance art” Marina Abramović to talk about the essential role that ritual\, repetition\, and durational experiences play in reminding of us of our relationships to all things. \nAbout the Speakers \n\nMona Polacca\, a Hopi/Havasupai/Tewa elder\, has a Master of Social Work degree and has recently been chosen as a member of the World Council of Religious and Spiritual Leaders in recognition of her international justice work. She has worked on issues of Indigenous Peoples especially related to the Right to Water\, social and health issues\, and elderly native peoples. \nMona serves on several United Nations committees on indigenous people’s issues and is a featured author\, speaker\, and educator on indigenous people’s human rights\, aging\, mental health\, addiction\, and violence. She is also the President/CEO and faculty member of the Turtle Island Project\, a nonprofit program that promotes a vision of wellness by providing trans-cultural training to individuals\, families\, and healthcare professionals. \n\nSince the beginning of her career in Belgrade during the early 1970s\, Marina Abramović has pioneered performance art\, creating some of the form’s most important early works. Exploring her physical and mental limits\, she has withstood pain\, exhaustion\, and danger in her quest for emotional and spiritual transformation. \nAbramović was awarded the Golden Lion for Best Artist at the 1997 Venice Biennale. In 2010\, Abramović had her first major U.S. retrospective and simultaneously performed for over 700 hours in The Artist Is Present at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Abramovic founded the Marina Abramovic Institute (MAI)\, a platform for immaterial and long durational work to create new possibilities for collaboration among thinkers of all fields. \nHer most recent publication is Walk Through Walls: A Memoir\, Published by Crown Archetype on October 25\, 2016. Her retrospective\, The Cleaner\, opened at Moderna Museet\, Stockholm in February 2017 and is touring to the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark\, Henie Onstad Kunstsenter in Oslo\, Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn\, and Palazzo Strozzi in Florence. \n\nImage Credit\nPortrait of Marina Abramović\, © Dusan Reljin\, 2018

SUMMARY:Do Rivers Have Rights?
DESCRIPTION:If a river had the same legal rights as a person\, would we do a better job of protecting its ecosystem? And how might this legalistic approach intersect with traditional customs and rituals for sacred places? \nHindus believe life is incomplete without bathing in the Ganges at least once. While the river’s spiritual purity has remained unchallenged for millennia\, its water is now physically impure with the pollution of human and industrial waste. \nA court in Uttarakhand ruled that the Ganges and Yamuna rivers and their related ecosystems have “the status of a legal person\, with all corresponding rights\, duties\, and liabilities…in order to preserve and conserve them.” Can the same claim be made for the Hudson or any ecosystem? And if so\, what mechanisms can enforce these declarations? \nPhilosopher Vishwa Adluri meets with Riverkeeper’s John Lipscomb and environmental lawyer Ben Price to enlighten us on the issues at stake. \n \nAbout the Speakers

SUMMARY:What Would Buddha Do?
DESCRIPTION:If we are doomed no matter what\, do our decisions matter? In this program\, two self-proclaimed “bad Buddhists” try to answer the question of how to lose less badly and live ethically in the no-win situation of catastrophic climate change. \nWen Stephenson\, author of What We’re Fighting for Now Is Each Other\, wrote in a recent essay for The Baffler: ”[Climate] doomists are right that it’s a no-win situation. [And yet] even at this late date\, some versions of ‘losing’ could look far worse than others. We can still lose less badly!” \nEchoing this sentiment\, Roy Scranton\, author of Learning to Die in the Anthropocene\, wrote in a recent tweet: \n“If we are not careful\, we will waste our energy trying to convince zealots\, arguing over who is to blame\, attacking our allies\, and preaching to the choir\, and the seas will rise all the same. Is this the best use of what little time we have? Or can we do something different?” \nLook into the abyss with Scranton and Stephenson as they try make ethical sense of our collective catastrophe. \nAbout the Speakers

SUMMARY:Indigenous Timekeeping and Sacred Sites Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Does time fly? Is it a line\, a circle\, a spiral? Does it touch us differently in different spaces? Many of us take for granted the meaning of the clock and the calendar\, without considering that they are cultural constructs—related to natural cycles but also distinct from them. \nIn this workshop you can explore your own notions of time and space while learning about Indigenous timekeeping and sacred sites. The workshop is led by Geraldine Patrick Encina of the Center for Earth Ethics\, who has studied the ancient and traditional calendars of Mesoamerica and also worked with Mayan communities to reclaim their original ways of timekeeping\, and Mindahi Bastida Muñoz\, also of Center for Earth Ethics\, who works for the protection of the sacred sites and biocultural heritage of Indigenous peoples. \nAttendees are asked to bring a picture of a beloved home landscape and of a sacred site they are connected to. Please also bring a device that can access Google Maps. \nThe schedule is as follows:\nSalutation to the seven directions | 11:30–11:40 AM \nParticipant’s place-based presentation | 11:42 AM–12:15 PM \nBirth season and birthplace\, ancestors’ land(s)\, and a description/depiction of our beloved home landscape in every season. \nTimekeeping as a method of “placekeeping” or caretaking for the land | 12:17–1:00 PM \nThe Mayan case. Watch a short video about the original wisdom of the Maya and their true calendar. Learn about sacred sites in Mexico and their related ritual calendar dates. By using Google Maps\, try to figure out what is/are the ritual calendar date(s) for your sacred site. \nBreak | 1:00–1:20 PM \nDeveloping a time-space consciousness | 1:25–2:00 PM \nKeeping track of the sun\, moon\, and stars in our beloved home landscape. \nActivating Sacred Sites | 2:02–2:20 PM \nHow do we activate sacred sites in our beloved home landscape? Some guidelines. \nWriting a letter to our beloved home landscape | 2:22–2:30 PM \nAn opportunity for reconnecting in a sacred way. \nAbout the Speakers \nGeraldine Patrick Encina is the Scholar in Residence at the Original Caretakers Program at the Center for Earth Ethics. She has studied the ancient and traditional calendars of Mesoamerica and also worked with Mayan communities to reclaim their original ways of timekeeping. \nMindahi Bastida Muñoz is director of the Original Caretakers program at Center for Earth Ethics.

SUMMARY:PHAKCHOK RINPOCHE + ERRIC SOLOMON ANCIENT WISDOM AND TECH FUTURE
DESCRIPTION:If you thought ancient wisdom and Silicon Valley had nothing in common\, think again. Tibetan Buddhist lama Phakchok Rinpoche talks with tech entrepreneur Erric Solomon about ways we can break out of the imprisonment of habitual action (karma) and start to experience the unconditioned existence where true happiness lies. It’s radical. The speakers have prepared for this program: they are joint authors of Radically Happy. \n  \n“Radically Happy brings the new and the old together in a beautiful way. Phakchok Rinpoche marries his deep understanding of ancient wisdom with Erric Solomon’s experience in the technology-driven modern world. The combination helps us understand how meditation\, kindness\, and wisdom can make a real difference\, moment to moment\, in daily life.” —Mingyur Rinpoche\, author of The Joy of Living and Turning Confusion into Clarity A book signing of Radically Happy will follow the program.

SUMMARY:Take class with CEE in November.  Topics in Ministry: Religion and Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:SU190 Course Fall 2018: Topics in Ministry \nReligion and Climate Change: The World’s Faith & Wisdom Traditions in Ecological Crisis \nRegistration is open to UTS students/SU190 and to the public for a $25 registration fee.  Register here. \nClimate change is about more than science and economics. It raises questions about our moral obligations to one another across space and time and the nature of our interconnectedness. The same is true of other aspects of our ecological crisis: deforestation\, extinction of a vast number of species\, and the depletion and contamination of soil\, water and air. A deep inquiry into human belief systems yields insights into both the root causes of this problem and the sources of hope. Our studies include Laudato Si by Pope Francis\, the legacy of the Standing Rock prayer camp\, The Time to Act Is Now: A Buddhist Declaration on Climate Change\, The African Methodist Episcopal Church Statement on Climate Change and other major statements and voices. We also examine the ways in which theological language has been used to bolster support for the continued extraction and burning of fossil fuels.

SUMMARY:Learning the Mesoamerican legacy of being in harmony with nature: A workshop and talk with Dr. Mindahi Bastida
DESCRIPTION:The heritage and legacy from many Mesoamerican traditional cultures and indigenous communities have often been overlooked in today’s environmental curricula. \nThe goal of this workshop in partnership with the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies (F&ES) the Latin American SIG\, the Environmental Media and Arts SIG (EMAS) and the Grounded SIG is to offer Mesoamerican native peoples traditions to environment students\, to enrich their understanding of native people’s contributions to “heal the planet”. \nDuring the workshop\, Dr. Mindahi Bastida will talk about the differences and commonalities of Mesoamerican peoples that for years have helped them live in harmony with nature\, and there will also be an opportunity to tie theoretical knowledge with sensory activities by experimenting with ocarinas\, in order to help participants reconnect to the sounds of the earth\, and work towards the common goal of caring for our planet. \nRegister Now \n\nFood: Lunch\n\n\nHost\n\n\nGROUNDED SIG\nSpecialization: Nature and Society\nLatin American (LA SIG)\n\n\n\nContact\nJavier Gonzalez Rivero — 4752090909

SUMMARY:WORKING THROUGH ANCESTRAL KARMA
DESCRIPTION:We inherit more than our DNA from family—we gain habitual patterns\, particular ways of relating to money and time\, and perhaps even ancestral karma. Join leadership coach and author Hylke Faber in conversation with Buddhist teacher Miles Neale as they discuss how a relationship with our authentic nature can transcend our sometimes wonderful and sometimes messy inheritance. \nHylke’s family have been farmers in the northern part of the Netherlands for generations. He argues that part of what connects us back to our authentic state is the memory that our ancestors lived with a deep connection to nature. We can further reclaim our true nature by seeing through our fear-driven conditioning\, which Hylke calls our “crocodiles” in his recent book Taming Your Crocodiles: Unlearn Fear & Become a True Leader. Miles argues that what we do now has been influenced by the past but will also affect the future\, on an individual\, societal\, and environmental level. Learn to work through family karma from a place of genuine connection by joining these two great teachers for one fantastic night. \nA book signing featuring Hylke Faber’s Taming Your Crocodiles: Unlearn Fear & Become a True Leader and Miles Neale’s Gradual Awakening: The Tibetan Buddhist Path of Becoming Fully Human will follow the program. \n*** \nKARMA: ANCIENT WISDOM MEETS THE FUTURE Series at the Rubin Museum\n\nSomewhere between inventing the wheel and rocketing to Mars\, it seems that humanity has lost its ability to see the world as an interdependent enterprise\, with humans\, animals\, trees\, earth\, sun\, moon\, and the stars karmically intertwined in ecological intimacy. \nIn a series of conversations\, screenings\, and performances\, our Future Fellow Karenna Gore draws on a diverse set of wisdom and spiritual traditions to provide us with a rich source of ethical values. It is only through this non-anthropocentric worldview that is respectful of nature and compassionate to all forms of life that we can forge a sustainable future.

SUMMARY:MARIANNE WILLIAMSON + KARENNA GORE: METAPHYSICS AND THE PUBLIC SQUARE
DESCRIPTION:Cultural critic and best selling author Marianne Williamson talks with Rubin Museum Future Fellow and CEE Director\, Karenna Gore to explore how we can shift our civic conversation so that we are “watering the roots and not merely the leaves.” \nQuestions abound: \n\nWhat metaphysical healing needs to happen for us to move into a better phase of America? One that reconciles clashing narratives\, calls on us to be engaged as citizens rather than consumers?\nDoes the matter/spirit divide in Judeo-Christian traditions have anything to do with the fact that so many Americans do not perceive themselves as interconnected with land\, water\, air and other aspects of what we call “the environment”?\nDo gendered constructs of God the Father and Mother Nature matter?\nAre conventional definitions and metrics of “the economy” adequate?\nHow do we draw from the best of the world’s wisdom and faith traditions for this task without appropriating or being overly superficial so as to lose their deep meaning and power?\n\n_________ \nTickets: $35.00\nMember Receive a Discount \nFor more information: http://rma.cm/2q1

SUMMARY:Indigenous People's Day Viewing of the Doctrine of Discovery
DESCRIPTION:For two years\, the Center for Earth Ethics has prioritized studying and understanding the Doctrine of Discovery and it’s long standing consequences. We offer screenings of “Unmasking the Domination Code” with Q&A guided by CEE Team members and Special Guests for Union Seminary and at public events. Please inquire if you would like to request one for your community or congregation. \n*** \nIndigenous People’s Day Offering: \nThe Center for Earth Ethics at Union is sponsoring a film showing of the Doctrine of Discovery. This is a set of laws based on the Papal Bulls from the Catholic Church of the fifteen century. These edicts gave European Christians the right to invade non Christian lands and subdue the people\, making legitimate colonial occupation. \nOn Monday\, October 8th\, we are recognizing Indigenous People’s Day by showing this film. This is history which impacts Native people\, and still affects their sovereignty to this day. Please join us! The film will be shown in Room AD30 at Union Theological Seminary at 5:30 pm. Pizza will be provided.

SUMMARY:Pualani Case + Karenna Gore -The Original Instructions
DESCRIPTION:We are living in extraordinary times – deeply challenging times for the survival of life on earth. Yet emerging at this time are channels of information\, offering all kinds of doorways to a better understanding of how all life is inextricably connected. We are learning that people can connect across space and time in ways we would never have thought possible.\n\n\n\n\n\nBearers of this living ancestral wisdom – what some call “The Original Instructions” are among us\, and it is urgent that we pay attention to this message for humanity.\n\n\nIn this first program in the Karma series\, Karenna Gore looks at two channels of wisdom transmission. With Native Hawaiian Pua Case whose relationship to a sacred mountain has informed her teachings of traditional knowledge and ways; and with Shamanic Healing author Itzhak Beery who relates a dramatic example of a Midwestern woman finding herself being able to speak in an Amazonian language she does not understand\, relaying a message privileged only to shamans. Hawaiian singer/songwriter Häwane Rios will join Pua on stage for a concluding performance.\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n***\nPualani Case was born and raised on the Island of Hawai’i surrounded by high mountains and fresh waters. Pua’s life path has led her to become a Kumu Hula\, a teacher of the ways\, culture\, and traditions of the kanaka maoli\, or native peoples of Hawai’i. With a degree in Hawaiian Language and culture\, and a teaching degree in Social Studies\, interwoven with the traditional teachings from her kupuna\, or elders\, Pua has integrated ‘Ike Hawai’i\, or Hawaiian knowledge and lessons\, into the public school system and community for over 30 years. She and ‘ohana\, or family\, are active as spiritual and cultural leaders\, and have traveled around the world to address the challenges facing sacred places and lifeways of the people of HawaiʻI and beyond. These include the movement to protect the sacred mountain Mauna Kea on the Island of Hawai’i\, efforts to restore salmon to the McCloud River in New Zealand\, and the Standing Rock protests in North Dakota.
