This talk was part of the Wise Action Series offered by the San Francisco Dharma Collective.

In the Eightfold Path Wise Action and Sila are the Buddha’s prescription for moving through the world without causing harm and for ending suffering where we find it. This practice of integrity is as important today as it was 2,600 years ago and can serve as a solid foundation as we face a world where greed, hatred and delusion are running rampant.  Mary speaks about her experience standing firm in the Dharma while addressing social and economic injustice.

The Wise Action series asked the questions: How do we, as practitioners, meet this unprecedented moment in time? What does the dharma tell us? What is the balance between our inner work and outer work? Between speech and action? Between individual and communal response?
