If you please – draw me a Sheep who will live for a long time.

– Antoine de Saint- Exupéry

To understand is to love. That is what we are asked to do when we stand by our Earth and Animal kin who are so challenged to live in this human-ravaged world. Accompaniment is not passive. It is full, committed engagement with someone as they journey through life’s many varied sorrows and joys. To serve our Plant and Animal kin, we are asked to see and understand life from their points of view to best provide the support and resources they want and need. Nowhere is this understanding more essential than in times of aging, sickness, loss and death. Drawing on the teachings of the Five Remembrances, this course explores and reflects on the experiences and significance of these landmark events – what they mean and entail for us and for Earth and Animal beings whom we accompany and love. By deepening our understanding that all beings experience the reality of aging, illness, death, and loss, we break through barriers of difference to entrain the beat of our heart with the rhythm of the cosmos.
