This event was a beautiful celebration of our worldwide community of practitioners of conscientious compassion, featuring Dharma talks from renowned Buddhist teachers: Roshi Joan Hogetsu Hoeberichts, Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi, Bhante Buddharakkita; and Dassanāya Buddhist Community founder Ayyā Dhammadīpa.

The teachers at BGR's annual online gathering included Joseph Goldstein, Konjun Gaelyn Godwin, Bhante Buddharakkhita, Ven. Lekshe Tsomo, Rev. Kiyonobu Kuwahara, Raimund Hopf, Bhante Saranapala, and Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi.

In 2021, BGR hosted two online Dharma gatherings featuring talks by BGR founder Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi and other Buddhist teachers: a Pacific/Mountain U.S. gathering, held on October 2, and a Eastern/Central U.S. gathering, on October 30.

During Memorial Day Weekend 2021, Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi, Ayya Dhammadipa, Rev. Jin Chuan, and the worldwide BGR community came together for our first online meditation retreat in support of our work to relieve the suffering of hunger and poverty around the world.

In 2020, as the Covid pandemic continued to make in-person gatherings unsafe, BGR replaced our annual Walks to Feed the Hungry with a new series of regional online gatherings. In the years since, these Buddhist Action to Feed the Hungry gatherings have become a beautiful opportunity for the worldwide BGR community to join together in the Dharma.
