Rev War
Seeking to sow peace
Reverend Jesse Jennings, writing in the journal Science of Mind, said: "The world is seeking to sow peace, not only as the end of hostilities, but as a durable good, the perpetual playground in which respect and mutual understanding are the norm. "
I liked his idea especially since it gives the world a soul. "The world itself is seeking to sow peace…." Delicious.
A weekend ago, I participated in Earth Hour, target = "" www.earthhour.org> _blank an hour a lighter in which people around the world turned off their lights for one hour on Saturday night. Sitting in the dark by me a sense of a much larger, I read the words Rev. Jennings to the candle.
What if, in darkest moments of life on Earth, the world is really seeking to sow peace? Is this why humans sleep? And that peace can be sown in our hearts, minds, souls, bodies?
I hear the new ideas of all kinds of wars. Esai Morales spoke in real time with Bill Maher the other night, "War on drugs, fight against cancer, war on illiteracy, war on racism, war on poverty, and the ubiquitous war against terrorism. . . .
We do not do so well on the front in the war, dear friends, us Perhaps because there is no such thing as really win a war. I think we need a "stop of hostilities "on all these fronts. Hostility abusing our personal energy and the energy of the planet.
Instead, What if we all took to the practice of leasing or invite the world to sow peace in us as we sleep? Tonight, when you get into bed, Calls for peace, and see how you feel in the morning. I suspect that you, like me, you feel a part of a much broader, a "sustainable, the perpetual playground in which mutual respect and understanding are the norm. "
Try it. There is just something to gain. Peace.
