In 'Everything Matters – Turning Consumerism on its Head', Vajradarshini points out that we live in a world of things and there's a world of practice in things. As consumerism is defined as 'to destroy', we are challenged to find ways to turn consumerism on its head and find the Truth in our relationship to Things. Accompanied by Kavyasiddhi reading both poetry and prose, this beautiful Dharma gem is worth hearing again and again.

Talk given at the 2010 International Sangha Retreat.
