Cynthia Jurs

Cynthia Jurs, the author of “Summoned by the Earth; Becoming a Holy Vessel for Healing our World”, became a Dharmacharya in Thich Nhat Hanh’s Order of Interbeing in 1994, and is honorary lama in the Tibetan tradition. She is the founder of the Earth Treasure Vase Project and the Gaia Mandala Global Healing Community. Today, inspired by 30 years of pilgrimage into diverse communities and ecosystems to bring healing to the Earth, Cynthia is forging a new path of dharma in service to Gaia rooted in the feminine, honoring indigenous traditions, and teaching an embodied sacred activism devoted to collective awakening. Cynthia lives at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in northern New Mexico where she is often found walking in the wilderness or gardening with her husband.
