    Practice the Four Principles of Peace on Earth

"Community

Let the world into your life; decide to personally
be part of the solution to world problems.


Cooperation

Work with others to provide support and solidarity
for those who are hurt by war and other disasters.


Non-violence

Respect for dignity of those who are vulnerable; 
prepare yourself so that your actions will do no harm.


Witness

Open your heart to the suffering of the 
world, and pour love into the wounds.”


                          ---the Peace Book
                          by Louise Diamond

                                                            

Monthly Practice:

Wishing you all a very Happy Holiday Season, and Peaceful New Year!
