Make Black Friday Brown: Online Event to Resist Consumerism (Deer Park Monastery) in English, Vietnamese
We are not yet ready for the Make Black Friday Brown: Online Event to Resist Consumerism (Deer Park Monastery), please refresh this page 10 minutes before the event starts.
November 29 @ 9:00 am – 11:00 am PST
Monastics Offer Mindful Alternative to Holiday Shopping Spree
A Culture of Resistance – join the monks and nuns for a moment of togetherness, joy and resistance. Let’s come together and support one another to resist the temptation to get more things, to re-establish our sense of sovereignty and belonging, and to remind ourselves that we are enough and that we do have more than enough conditions to be happy right here in this very moment.
The gathering is the spirit of togetherness, largely casual and spontaneous with a little touch of Dharma sharing, singing, and storytelling from monastics and other friends about their journey to the practice, including their experiences around owning and letting go.
This online mindfulness gathering we’re calling “Make Black Friday Brown,” or Brown Friday is in reference to the color of the robes worn by monastics in the international Plum Village community. In Vietnam, brown is the color of the clothing worn by the peasants and country side folks, to represent a life of moderation and simplicity.
Over the past two years, thousands of friends from around the world joined us over Zoom in solidarity to peacefully resist this consumerist holiday.
The situation the Earth is in today has been created by unmindful production and unmindful consumption
