An area larger than the state of Rhode Island, the Serra do Brigadeiro Rural Development Territory, in the state of Minas Gerais, shelters hundreds of endangered and endemic species, including the world’s largest population of the highly endangered wooly spider monkey brachyteles hypoxanthus. It is also an area of family farms, an important watershed and a region rich in bauxite. Over a three week period in late December 2008 and early January 2009 the region has had almost twice its annual rainfall, resulting in serious flooding, damage to roads and infrastructure. Is it possible to preserve the traditional livelihoods of these farmers, protect the rare biodiversity of the rainforest, ensure the survival of the wooly monkey, conserve water resources and conduct a mining operation in a way that is environmentally and ethically desirable?

Many feature prominent figures from Indian and Tibetan Buddhism, including Yeshe Tsogyal, Machig Labdrön, and Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. Detailed Information for Website - NO LIMIT (Will NOT Appear in Email.): Admission Free! About Ravenna — Ravenna Michalsen is one of the few full time American Buddhist musicians with ambitions to start an “American Buddhist music movement.” Ravenna trained as a classical cellist for 14 years, and turned to voice and song writing in college. It wasn’t until a retreat with Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche in 2002 that the combination of dharma and music occurred. As of 2009, Ravenna has successfully released two albums, Bloom and Dharmasong, both essentially devotional albums: sadness, joy and anger are combined with utter openness and acceptance. Many feature prominent figures from Indian and Tibetan Buddhism, including Yeshe Tsogyal, Machig Labdrön, and Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. What is Dharma Music?** –- Dharma is a Sanskrit word meaning "the teachings of the Buddha", "the way things are" or simply: "that which holds us back". The Tibetan word for dharma is "chö", which can be translated as: "to heal", "to restore" or "to repair". Dharma music then is music that turns the mind toward the teachings of the Buddha or that which holds us back from harmful action. more info
