Singhashri's years of spiritual exploration shine through the pages of The Radical Embrace, offering us a deeply embodied, trauma-informed approach to spiritual practice that is at the same time rooted in an awareness of our obligations to address social, environmental, and economic injustice. We need more Dharma teachings like these. – Bodhipaksa, author of This Difficult Thing of Being Human and The Heart’s Awakening
The Radical Embrace is a powerful reminder that we are all beginners, and awakening is available to everyone. This unique and accessible Dharma book invites us to dream, while offering grounded exercises to ensure we don’t spiritually bypass. It's perfect for the curious beginner and for the seasoned practitioner who has forgotten these teachings are about excavating profound freedom. – Vimalasara (Valerie) Mason-John, author of First Aid Kit for the Mind: Breaking the Cycle of Habitual Behaviors
Singhashri's The Radical Embrace is an intimate conversation about healing ourselves and our communities, calling us toward ‘a radical shift in perspective from a world based on domination to one rooted in love.’ Drawing from Buddhist practice, inclusive sangha-building, activism, and grief work, Singhashri offers wisdom and practical meditation guidance. As a socially engaged, gender queer, BIPOC practitioner, I found real medicine here. This is dharma for our times. Viveka Chen, Dharma and Somatics Teacher/Social Justice Coach and Facilitator
The radical embrace of what is possible – in the healing of becoming all of who we are, in the integration of our intergenerational and ancestral heritages, in the most expansive intentions to imbue love into our relationship with all things (including people), and in the awakening to freedom – is beautifully and skillfully described in The Radical Embrace. – Larry Yang, author of Awakening Together, founding teacher of East Bay Meditation Center
Do you remember the exact moment when you were a young child and a parent screamed at you to scare you away from the stove’s flame? Probably not. As an adult, have you lived a portion of your life afraid to touch deeply into the fire of strong emotions within your mind and body? Probably. Have those strong emotions smouldered over the years with projectile embers that burn those you love? If so, you may find that reading The Radical Embrace is like being immersed in a cool holding container to alchemize the fires of destruction into the refreshing path of constructive wisdom and relationality. – Pamela Ayo Yetunde, Th.D., author of Dearly Beloved: Prince, Spirituality, & This Thing Called Life and Casting Indra’s Net: Fostering Spiritual Kinship and Community
