Coping with Chaos--The next chapter
After a really great week at the Shambhala Institute in the Coping with Chaos module, our merry band of inquirers has more questions they want to pursue. We will consider those questions here and invite others to join us, as well. Here are the slides and a handout that we used in the session. They'll give you some background, and the rest will come as you engage with us. Glenda and Wendy

I had a lovely conversation last night with an NTL member who was thinking about how diversity influences conversations in that community. I began to see that when they (and we) talk about racism, we tend to move to objective truth claims--history, statistics, law, others' stories. I wonder how it would shift the conversation if we looked at, and validated, each others' subjective truths. If we truly listened to each other and learned to strive to meet our individual needs, I wonder if we might flock to a worldview in which racism was unthinkable. At least we would be focusing on a pattern (similiarities, differences and relationships that have meaning in space and time) of individual identity, pain, and generative voice that we can influence. have you tried this? How has it worked?2. How can we increase awareness that there are unintented consequences of racism?
