The Pacha Mama Symposium, also called “Awakening the Dreamer” has deeply moved and inspired us. It is a potent response to the challenges of our time, bringing together the three threads environmental sustainability, social justice and spiritual fulfilment in a deeply creative, intelligent, empowering, and heartful way. This material rocks! The symposium has been designed to support people to acknowledge and find a creative response to the crisis of our time. The mission statement of the symposium is to help to bring forth a human presence on this earth which is environmentally sustainable, socially just, and spiritually fulfilling as the guiding principle of our times. For those already aware of and working with these themes and challenges the symposium seems to act as a deep well to re source and reconnect with the meaning behind the work you do. For others it's a potent, inspiring and empowering look at what it happening, why and what we can do.

The PachaMama Alliance has grown out of a collaboration between the Achuar people of the Amazon, and a group of North Americans. They have created a symposium which looks at where we are, how we got here, and where do we go from here? If you want more information about the symposium, look at the Awakening the Dreamer pages of the Pachamama Alliance. Susannah is integrating MM into the symposium, Ya'Acov is integrating the symposium into specific workshops.
