Long-term goals and big projects for the Novasutras movement

ByNovasutras Movement
As discussed in this video, the long-term goals and big projects of the Novasutras movement could include:
  • Defending and protecting the environment, agaya and ubuntu — 01:16
  • Responding to disasters — 02:29
  • Rebuilding after disasters — 05:27
  • Supporting social justice causes — 07:37
  • Education — 09:01
  • Preserving knowledge and culture — 10:11
  • Spreading joy and celebration — 12:29
Of course, similar goals and ideas have been expressed by different people, and in other places. The intention with Novasutras is to weave these threads together through the strength of a spiritual community.
We’ve already outlined the Novasutras movement goals for this year and next year in terms of strategic movement building. But these goals are mostly in the service of growing a movement large enough to support bigger things while promoting the philosophy of agaya and ubuntu. Now we should work together to develop our long-term intentions for the Novasutras movement.
Collaboration and co-creation are vital elements in the Novasutras movement. So let us know what you think: what’s most important, how do you want to help  or how should we use contributions?

The global environmental and social challenges we face today are daunting, and they demand a response at a scale appropriate to the problem. Join us as we build a spiritual movement based in the principles of reverence for the living world, interdependence and loving-kindness: agaya and ubuntu.

Uplifting Each Other

ByNovasutras Movement

As the Novasutras Movement emerges, we need a few people to come forward and help make this collaborative vision a reality. In order to get securely rooted so we can begin to really thrive, we need teams of people who can help us reach more people, through social media, outreach, writing, audio/video work, local organizing, fundraising and creative arts.
