Von Bruck briefly discussed the need of a cultural metamorphosis. In one of his lectures Professor Michael von Bruck discussed culture, stories, myths and the need to develop new stories in order to change the course we currently seem the be headed in: The course of ecological destruction and the irreversible change of our living environments on earth. I chose to further explore the subject of gender and critical history to support the curriculum development. During this winter school 25 PhD candidates and early career researchers from China, Russia, Germany and the Netherlands took part, from disciplines ranging from neuroscience, energy science and public health – to discuss the deep roots of the global ecological crisis- together with a number of Buddhist monastics. This review was written as part of the January 2019 Experimental Winter School which was took place in and was organized in preparation of a Curriculum for the University of Life and Peace an initiative of Zen Master Hsin Tao of the Jin Liou Mountain Buddhist Foundation.
