Our mission

We define ourselves as a “Mass Media of Resistance”

We seek to understand and analyze the Bahusaṅkaṭa (i.e., Polycrisis: a multidimensional crisis that doesn't have a straight forward solution) in which we all are immersed, along with the Bahuduḥkha (multiform suffering) of all sentient beings, through the lens of Madhyamāpratipada (the Middle Way in Buddhism which is our guiding force). And in collaboration with the broader Ecological Solidarity Movement and the Ecological Solidarity Alliance, we strive to bring the depth of these realities to the forefront of human consciousness.
