Living Earth Youth Dialogues: Sharing from the Heart - Ecophilosophies East and West - Jared Morningstar

Living Earth Youth Dialogue

Ecophilosophies East & West

Friday, March 3, 2023 from 5:00–6:30 pm PST

Sharing From the Heart is a monthly initiative where young people from China and the United States come together around the pressing ecological, cultural, and spiritual issues of our time. Through sharing thoughts, personal stories, and actions in local settings, Chinese and American youth will begin building cross-cultural bonds to support a vision of a new, ecological civilization.

In this event, Jared Morningstar will explore resources and roadblocks to ecological thinking and living found within both Eastern and Western philosophical and religious systems. He will first discuss Christianity and Islam, detailing potential issues of transcendence and anthropocentrism in these traditions. He will also examine Buddhism and Taoism where one finds a less pronounced historical consciousness than the Abrahamic traditions. To conclude, he will suggest how these traditions can be brought together under a process perspective to go beyond their individual shortcomings.
