Honouring 26th January as Survival Day: On Truth-telling

We cannot afford to cover over, or forget how we got where we are: this is a potent teacher we can all learn from. What does ‘Australia Day’ really embody, and how can we honour the history and truth-telling about our collective past, and learn from this for more understanding and solidarity in our shared future?

Compassion is not a place to rest: it is a place of great awareness, for action to rise out of. It can begin now.

We live, work and co-create on the sacred lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Worrong people, of the Kulin Nation.

With deep gratitude, respect and commitment, we endeavour for an on-going practice of solidarity and reciprocity with land, sea and sky, informed by the guidance of its innate harmonious wisdom.

Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.
