Truly Natural Compassionate Engagement ~ An Engaged Nonduality Event with Rick Hanson, John Prendergast and Lisa Ferguson

Sunday, January 4, 2026 @ 9:00am-11:00am (Pacific Time)

Truly Natural Compassionate Engagement
An Engaged Nonduality Event with Rick Hanson,
hosted by John Prendergast and Lisa Ferguson

With guest Rick Hanson, we’ll explore recognizing our true nature not just as awareness, but as compassionate humans who are deeply collaborative and cooperative. Founder of the Global Compassion Coalition, Rick will guide us in carrying our wounds with love and exploring collective action in response to suffering.

Just as nondual teachings point to our already awake nature, we don’t have to make an effort to be compassionate, but can unleash our natural compassionate engagement. Just as nondual practice is surrendering to our true nature, we can also surrender to our innate goodness: our impulse to connect with others and engage in an effective response to suffering.

Founder of the Global Compassion Coalition, renowned author on contemplative practices and neuroscience, Rick brings a depth of spiritual understanding and wealth of insight about using the power of compassion to accelerate effective collective action while also maintaining our resilience. We’ll explore how we can come together and open to our creative, empowered response to our troubled world.......
