This book, like the gathering it documents, emerged from the collective efforts of many hands, hearts and minds. While the medium of the <\/span>written word often transmits an aura of disembodied universality <\/span>transcending time and space, all writing is the product of the particular <\/span>context in which it emerged, which leaves a mark as indelible as the <\/span>terroir of any wine. In the case of this book, that context is the soil of <\/span>Thailand and the dozens of generous local friends whose hospitality <\/span>made it possible for us to gather together in celebration and curiosity <\/span>during the course of this unconference. The Sak Yant (<\/span>\u0e2a\u0e31\u0e01\u0e22\u0e31\u0e19\u0e15\u0e4c<\/span>) <\/span>designs <\/span>that grace the cover of this book being one marvellous example, arising <\/span>from the snycretic blend of Indian tantric buddhist yantras with <\/span>indigenous Thai pre-buddhist animist practices & cosmology. To <\/span>Professor Prapapat Niyom, Phra Sangkom Khunsiri, Dr. Wiwat <\/span>Salyakamthorn, Tang Ratnabhanu and all the staff, students, <\/span>photographers and volunteers at Arsom Silp, Mab Ueng & the <\/span>Monkversity who hosted us during these beautiful days, I offer the <\/span>deepest gratitude and the highest praise I am able to give. I am equaly <\/span>and delightedly indebted to the Ecoversities Alliance facilitation & <\/span>organizing team – Petra Carman, Gerardo Amaro Lopez, Suzana Nory, <\/span>Natalie Limwatana, Ana Marica, Manish Jain, Topsi Wansiri, Abampai <\/span>Ratnabhanu, Alison Asawaroengchai, Rajesh Choudhary, Yeyo Beltran <\/span>& Ashish Tiwari \u2013 for all the tireless work behind the scenes co-<\/span>ordinating countless moving parts in order to give us a seamless <\/span>experience of ease that was at times no doubt far from easy. To my <\/span>author friends who gifted us the words that fill these pages, I extend a <\/span>joyful bow and a prayer that your gift effect the change we all want to <\/span>see in the world. To the donors who sponsored the unconference and <\/span>the work on this publication, I thank you for your commitment to our <\/span>shared vision and the abundance of transformative collective joy <\/span>harvested from the fruits of your solidarity.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
