HOW DO OUR STORIES COALESCE for the living Earth?

The Four Fields are a contemporary, ecological, and socio-political teaching on the embodiment of wakefulness. They form a systematic path of practices attuned to the animate skin of this planet and to the depths of awareness, guiding nimble action.  

The video teaching below is an introduction to the Four Fields, transmitting the qualities and energetics of each field, opening the portal to further wander through their infinities. The fieldpaths are multiple and dynamic.

In each field we attune and ask "what is needed"? Though each field is vast and lively, suffering and entrapment do occur, for each field is sensitive in its own ways. If we encounter any contraction, capture, or suffering in a field, we respond with systematic practices that we call "composting." In this way, ecological regeneration and systemic social transformation are inseparable from contemplative awakening.  

There is no hierarchy to the fields, they are equally primordial. This is an intervention into the long history of worldviews that oppose transcendence and immanence, mind and world, material and spiritual. Instead, the fields surge-forth spontaneously as suchness. We always find ourselves at the threshold of these four fields, right now.
