This election decides not only who will
govern America but what kind of country it will be — what its values
are, what kind of society it will be, where its heart really lies. At LionsRoar.com
we offer Buddhist wisdom to help us work with our hopes, fears, and
uncertainty as we live through the most important political moment of
our lifetime. Before the winner is known, we offer wise voices and
helpful techniques to get us through the anxious wait. As soon as the
election is called, we’ll have reaction and advice from leading Buddhist
teachers, thinkers, and activists. Whether you feel the outcome is
positive or disastrous, LionsRoar.com offers the best of Buddhist wisdom as we face the present and look to the future.
Lion’s Roar’s Sandi Rankawduwa talks to Dr. Tania Israel, author of Facing the Fracture: How to Navigate the Challenges of Living in a Divided Nation,
about bridging political divides with compassion, how to maintain
connection amidst political differences, and staying true to our
convictions without demonizing others.
Change is the only constant, Marc Lesser
reminds us — even if we hate it. He shares how Buddhism’s Five
Remembrances can help us navigate life’s transitions and find acceptance
in the face of uncertainty.
In a piece first published in 2017 — but
just as relevant today — Rev. angel Kyodo williams says we must stand up
to racism and expose its institutionalized forms to uphold the dharma —
even in Buddhist communities.
