Stand Up! Speak Out! Where There's Dharma There Is Victory! offered by Lawrence Edwards, PhD

Drawing on the words of John Lewis (1940-2020), the great civil rights leader from Georgia, Lawrence speaks about how the path of meditation empowers us to engage the challenges of the world while cultivating equanimity, compassion, loving kindness and peace. Quoting from Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, (Stephen Mitchell, trans.), Lawrence discusses how humanity has been evolving and dealing with leaders deluded by power and greed for thousands of years. Now we are at a critical point in our evolution where we have to pursue what's beneficial for all beings on our planet. Meditation empowers us to take on these challenges and bring greater Consciousness to the halls of power and our everyday lives.
