One City by Ethan Nichtern

What you wear. What you say. What you think/ignore/buy/don't buy. Welcome to One City-Population: Everyone-where EVERYTHING you do matters. You've lived here your whole life, whether you know it or not.

Ethan Nichtern, the charismatic and creative force behind New York's upstart Interdependence Project is your guide to the beauty that is everywhere in the urban jungle-in the rattling of subway trains, the screechings of traffic, the hum and drone of millions scurrying for work, food, sustenance, art, culture, and meaning. There may be no greater setting for exploring the great truth that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. expounded: Whatever effects one directly, effects all indirectly.

One City melds Dr. King's message with modern Buddhist wisdom to offer a new way of understanding what binds us all together-no matter where we are, no matter who. With its pop-culture savvy, humor, and literary liveliness, One City will speak to--and even, it's fair to say, help define--the spiritually-inclined, conscious Next Generation.

Ethan Nichtern is a senior teacher in the Shambala Buddhist school and the author of One City: A Declaration of Interdependence and The Journey Home: A Modern Study of the Buddhist Way. He's also the creator of the Interdependence Project, a non-profit dedicated to secular Buddhist research in the areas of transformative activism, mindful arts and media projects, and Western psychology. Since 2002, Nichtern has been teaching meditation and Buddhist studies seminars and retreats all throughout the United States. He is based in the city of New York.
