A Gift that Keeps on Giving
We ceremonially plant an indigenous tree for the first training you attend.
“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now!” – Chinese Proverb
Ecological Restoration
Attend one of our events / trainings and we will ceremonially plant a tree on your behalf to restore our collective outer-wilderness.
Planting a single tree sequesters 1 ton of carbon out of the atmosphere. This carbon is food for the soil and its vast below ground ecology. Planting a tree restores life. A mature tree is home to a community of millions of life forms – seen and unseen.
Trees become forests, and forests become sanctuaries. The wild returns and the ecological web is made new. The ancient wild in your DNA is refreshed. And the world we share with countless others is restored.
A Radiant Gift for the benefit of all beings:
Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha
Nature’s truth is visible, the sacred teachings continue to radiate, and the community of life can thrive.
Sky Beings
The birds, the clouds, the wind and air, flying insects, and the temperature.
Underground Beings
The moles, rabbits, snakes, worms, ants, mycelium and fungi, the soil and its family of life sustaining nutrient.
Aboveground Beings
The two legged, four, six, eight and multi legged creations, the grasses, plants, vines and flowers.
You and Future Beings
Your spirit, your heart, your body and mind, and the ground of life into which future generations will be born.

Regenerating generosity
The first schools formed under the shade and generosity of trees. Your *first entry through any of the branches or BEZA gateways is a commitment to regenerating your personal, internal wholeness. Accordingly, we mirror your commitment by regenerating our collective, external environment by planting an indigenous tree on your behalf.
*When you register for any of our offerings please indicate whether it is your first entry into the Academy’s training matrix.
*Additionally, you will also be asked if you would like to double your regenerative efforts by planting a second tree on behalf of another for $10 (R200)
