Cultivating
Peace & Equitable Systems

Committing to our inner work is not just for ourselves — it is for all of us.

By practicing and embodying Engaged Buddhism and mindfulness, we are invited to contribute and participate in collective transformation, creating peace globally. Contributing to collective transformation comes from understanding ourselves and the systems we live in, and then making an active commitment to contribute differently. Peace, justice, and equitable systems comes from collective transformation.

Collective transformation initially resonated with me as a half-Mexican, who understands the colonization of Mexico, and also as someone who is a settler in the West, growing up in a smalltown that housed a residential school. In understanding the harms of colonization and its contribution to sustaining inequitable systems, we commit to transforming fear, anger, entitlement, and privilege for the purpose of peace and justice.

why collective transformation?

collective liberation

Contribute to collective liberation through collective transformation.

Invitation 1:
Commit to your inner work.

When we commit to our inner work, we commit to being aware. We bring this awareness into navigating the external environment, but also, this awareness will invite us to unlearn many of the inner dialogues, biases, and knowledge, that have created conditioned resistance within us to the many facets of collective liberation.

Invitation 2:
Know what you contribute and identify what role you can play

There are many roles we can play in collective transformation. When we know who we are and set the intention to commit to transformation, we are able to contribute in ways that align with who we are. Offering this amazing resource by Slow Factory to support you in this part of your journey, as you explore the many roles you can take on to collective liberation.

Invitation 3:
Identify collective groups and organizations to be a part of so you can learn and contribute.

Be open-minded, ask questions, listen more than you speak, volunteer…

Invitation 4:
Stay educated and informed.

Educated does not mean “have a degree”. Educated means staying informed, challenging norms, questioning what is regularly offered in regular news programming. Being educated and staying informed may mean adopting more community-level news and platforms.

Invitation 5:
Cement your truth by embracing fear.

Fear is a normal part of the journey; it takes vulnerability to unlearn and trust blindly in things and people we’ve been taught not to trust. But if we can embrace fear, we don’t need to be afraid of fear. Instead, we should fear what happens if we don’t contribute to change, further cementing us in our truth.
