Practicing 93 days of Mindfulness of Peace & Non-Violence
The first ever grassroot World March for Peace and Non-violence lasting over 3 months and spanning over 100 countries and 300 cities is beginning its long journey today. It is starting in a few hours from Wellington, New Zealand with the blessings of indigenous Moriori people, asking for the end of wars, the dismantling of nuclear weapons and for an end to all forms of violence (physical, economic, racial, religious, cultural, sexual and psychological).
This is a historic moment for the planet and its silent majority of peace loving citizens striving towards making a united stand for peace and non-violence in all forms. We are putting our collective intention to change our course and direction from greed, hatred, violence and ignorance to peaceful ways of addressing the myriad social, economic, environmental, interpersonal, and personal challenges we find ourselves in now.
This moment unlike any other in the history of human race offers tremendous opportunities for letting go of old ways of command and control, war and violence, lies and deceit, and embrace new ways of sharing, collaborating, deep listening and cocreative intelligence to find peaceful solutions to meet all our basic needs and higher aspirations.
Please follow and endorse this march of peace ambassadors across the planet in the coming days and months. Send your blessings and lend your unique voice to it. Share it with your school, organization, friends and community. May peace prevail in our hearts, home, communities, work, and the planet. May we awaken to our true nature, our calling and purpose at this time. May we find the courage to follow our hearts calling with dignity and fearlessness and accept life with boundless metta.
I volunteered because I feel awareness of this event is lacking within USA, where it is most needed. Here is my latest post in Peacemaker Institute & my peace profile at Shambhalatimes.
As The KY contact for Worldmarchusa I am organizing a mutifaith, muticulture community event with children and students to be held at The Lexington Public Library Theater, Main St. Wednesday, December 2nd 6:30 - 9 PM. This event will be followed by a peace walk (TBA)
If you like to be participate in the cultural part with dance, song, music, poem, art, please contact me or your state contact with subject "World March Event".

Also every thursday November join the regular interfaith peace vigil with poster or reflections on the ongoing world march at Triangle park, DT from 5:30-6PM
Just listening to this beautiful song of peace sung by montessori children around the world uplifted me.
Attend if you can any of this weekend the Franciscan Pathways to Peace events .
You may follow the march and join events here at Europe, CANADA and USA
Thank You for your attention and compassion for all, including your enemies and those who may have hurt you. Stop the cycle of inner violence and unconscious aggression in body, mind and speech.
Accept the present sitution with all its perils and possibilities. Work with it and not against it. Practice being kind, being friendly, being gentle, being appreciative, being still, being peace ~
“Better than a thousand hollow words is one word that brings peace.” – Buddha
Personally I pledge to practice more moment to moment mindfulness and be in harmony within and outside in all my relationships.
