Peace Walk: This Sunday, Jan 22, Lincoln & Wilshire in Santa Monica, 2pm
Last year on October 8th, the renowned Buddhist teacher, Thich Nhat Hanh, led over 3000 people in a mindful Peace Walk around MacArthur Park, Los Angeles. It was a beautiful demonstration of embodied peace.
Thay, or teacher, as his students refer to him, called upon us to "walk in such a way that each step we make becomes a realization of peace; each step becomes a prayer for peace & harmony walk together in silence with no banners and no pickets not a petition addressed to anyone, nor a demonstration against anyone walk to unite our hearts, to nurture our togetherness and to dissipate fear and separation learn together that wrong perceptions of self and others are at the foundation of separation, fear, hate and violence, and that togetherness and collaboration is possible." . . .
