Meditation & Prayer for Climate

Give your children the gift of a future. Raise Climate Change awareness with us at this silent public meditation. #TellTheTruth
When: Sunday, December 15, 1:00 – 2:00 pm (Rain-out date would be December 22.)

Where: Beside the Circle of Palms, in downtown San Jose, between the San Jose Museum of Art and the Fairmont. (exact location within that outdoor plaza may need to change on a dime, depending on the Christmas the Park and Downtown Ice vendors and crowds…..just look for our signs!)

Come join your local Extinction Rebellion chapter in 30 minutes of silent climate healing-focused meditation or prayer. Any and all faiths and beliefs are welcome to join in quiet, respectful contemplation. Silent sitting will be Sunday, December 15 from 1 - 1:30 pm, with community conversation until 2 pm. In addition to a larger sign and some flyers being handed out, we will have some light cardboard signs to wear, so the message can be read, not heard.

If you would like to participate, please bring your own firm/high pillow, neck travel pillow, or zafu for sitting. Something to sit on between yourself and the cold concrete makes all the difference! An extra coat, blanket, or towel is also a good idea for cushioning your knees against the hard ground and keeping yourself warm.

Participants, please be aware of the following guidelines: This is a non-violent, peaceful action. No aggressive behavior, alcohol or drug use, or weapons will be tolerated.
