Kinship Circle: Staying Awake
w/ Nora Manon Müller & Anselm Ibing
Friday, September 17, 3 – 4:30 pm ET

The Kinship Activity of North America invites you to join us for a special Kinship Circle with Nora Manon Müller and Anselm Ibing on the pressing issues confronting each of us when we face the future. They raise big questions right out of the fabric of their lives for us to consider:

“In our family life – our son Émile was born mid-January – we deal with questions of carbon emissions, water footprints, pollution, and uneasy future scenarios every day, and try to navigate this ‘minefield’ as we make choices for our future and that of our son and the world around us.”

This Kinship Circle is open to all who are sincerely interested. Registration is not required. Please see the sidebar for the time in your local area.

If you have questions about the Inayatiyya Kinship Activity and/or about this special Kinship Circle, please email kinship@inayatiyya.org.

    Nora Manon Müller experienced burnout in her 20s after studying environmental issues and doing field research. She “came back to life” through a focus on Sufi practices, nature connection, and gratitude, leaving news and books aside. But soon, the big questions of the world came back, and she realized that “looking away” would not allow a full life. The subtitle of Joanna Macy’s book Active Hope: How to Face the Mess We Are in Without Going Crazy has now become her quest. The question is open and huge, but life with her partner Anselm is certainly part of her very personal answer: returning to simple presence, celebrating the moment of love, and laughing whenever we get a chance!

    Anselm Ibing currently is mostly a beekeeper. Being so close to these hard-working beings nearly every day is a great and humbling reminder of our human ignorance and of the great mystery that lies behind all things. While he is pessimistic about the climate, he is full of optimism for life and all the opportunities offered by challenging times ahead. When he takes a deep breath and a step back, he asks himself: What is the deeper sense behind this cascade of planetary crises for the sea of souls that we are?
