SUMMARY:BCD Live Event: New Horizons in Engaged Buddhism: Host Julia Sagebien interviews Joshin Byrnes
DESCRIPTION:In this ninth episode in the New Horizons in Engaged Buddhism series\, host Julia Sagebien interviews Joshin Byrnes. Joshin is a Zen priest and teacher at Bread Loaf Mountain Zen Community in Middlebury\, Vermont\, a hub of community-engaged practice with direct service programs that include an active daily drop-in center called Gather and transitional supported housing at The Grove. He holds street retreats and bearing witness practices across the country\, informed by decades of experience in HIV/AIDS activism—including work with AIDS Action Committee in Boston and the San Francisco AIDS Foundation—as well as leadership at community-based philanthropic organizations\, including The Vermont Community Foundation and the Santa Fe Community Foundation. Before founding Bread Loaf Mountain\, he served as president\, vice abbot\, and chaplaincy training director at Upaya Zen Center. Earlier in life\, he studied philosophy and theology as a member of the Dominican Order\, a social-justice oriented Catholic community\, and trained as a musician and musicologist. \nTo attend this live event\, click here: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/8246019794?pwd=wBClQIIZIA1hLkaiL8dzZyniJoQj0V.1&omn=85389547806 \n
