first I'd like to than rose for the beautiful logo.

the idea for this group sprung to my mind after I receive a message from Mohamad sh.

he wrote:

Dear everyone,

As you all see my list, i have a 120 friends, part of them palestinian, others from israel and also some from other arab countries and others like USA , EU, and more, i would like to ask a sensitive question to my friends from israel, and also other are welcome to answer it: everyone of us here talking peace, and about peace, and sounds for me life on this is is so great and lovely, seems no hatred and racism, no occupation and war, from big part of the comments i read mostly we say: we want peace, and here is my question: WHEN WE SAY PEACE, WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THIS NICE WORD, WHAT KIND OF PEACE WE WANT, WHERE COULD BE OUR LIMITES, BORDERS AND WHAT CAN WE GIVE TO MAKE PEACE REAL, LOTS OF QUESTIONS THAT FOR SURE NEED A DEEP THINKING TO SATISFY OUR NEEDS.
THANKS

So I answered:

That a really good question. I thank you for it, Mohamad. Peace means a great deal of different things to many people. It is a very personal question. I can tell you about the first things that come to my mind when I close my eyes and think of peace. I see no more wars. I see a time when my grandchildren don't have to spend 3 years of their lives in the army. I see equality and respect between peoples and nations. I see my Arab friends come to visit me at home, I see us going to the beach together. I see myself hanging out with my Lebanese friends in Beirut. But most of all, I see myself being able to get in the car with my dad (who is 87 years old) and 2 sons, and drive to Baghdad, Iraq, through Jordan or Syria. In Baghdad he takes us to the house he was born in, and to all the places he told us so many stories about. There, we close a circle.
These dreams might sound trivial to many, but these simple acts have been denied of so many people in the Middle East.

What would I give for REAL peace? Almost everything.

Then I thought, why limit it to Mohamad's friends. It's an important question. Why not open it up for everybody in iPeace?

Last summer I attended a lecture by Arun Gandhi (grandson of Mahatma Gandhi) & Mairead Corrigan Maguire (Nobel Peace Prize winner) in the Scottish Parliament, here in the historic & beautiful city of Edinburgh.

Mairead spoke of nurturing & cultivating love & peace within yourself, and then sharing it. Arun quoted his Grandfather who spoke of the seed of peace. If this seed is kept in a box it will wither & die. However, if the seed is exposed to the elements it will grow & flourish!

The message is clear, share your peace & let it grow & flourish.

And, with this in mind, please embrace the philosophy behind this movement and share your passion for peace by reaching out and inviting your friends.

Comment by susan oppenheim on January 25, 2009 at 6:52pm: I own a small fair trade store in Toronto.I have been selling the Zatoun fair trade products-oil and soaps-for 2 years.The demand has been so awesome and overwhelming in the past month that my supplier told me yesterday we will actually run out of product before the next shipment comes through in April.

.Zatoun not only supports the farmers/growers/bottlers of Nablus but it also endorses many micro industries and building projects.Their web site is specific and I am very proud to work with this thriving partnership between israelis and palestinians.

Comment by Lynn Mystic-Healer on January 25, 2009 at 3:25am: Dear Fellow Peacemakers,
I hope you will get others to sign my petition to create new earth GOVT. jobs that focus on the love and light Soul energies of each human being. I feel we must create new earth healing jobs that also unite all human beings and help them awaken to thier ture Soul purpose and Teach this new way to cope with life problems and crisis from inside out. We have a Soul-INNER-NET that is intergalactic in nature and is only from ancient eternal wisdom of love and light energies that has holy spirits and guardianangels waiting to help humans remember--WE MUST ASK- AND BELEIVE TO OPEN AND RECEIVE. We are all brother and sisters and KARMA and war begets war--WHATEVER WE FOCUS ON GROWS-- We must create new GOVT Soul Activation and healing jobs to shift the old ego mind hurtful paradigms and lower thought forms of warring mentality and drug wars and abusive addictions and violence-- to LOVE AND LIGHT INTERGALACTIC SOUL-UTION LEVEL jobs that will reform our social services, at risk youth programs and health care system- from higher dimensional wisdom that is only from love and light energies.

The time is now!!! There is a spiritual answer to every human problem or crisis and the Soul Activaiton Process can help find all these answers we need now--both individually and as a big house( mother earth) that has many rooms that need help. Everyone is part of the matrix and so we need to help shfit the job focus and money and time spent on the old warring and drug warring paradimgs to new jobs that focus on each unique Soul purpose of all the human beings.
ALL HUMAN BEINGS IN ANGER AND WARRING AND SUFFERING MUST LEARN THE LIFE LESSON (THE aCTIVATIN PROCESS WILL TELL YOU YOUR lessons)- help you let go of the past---- ressurrecta new life -by using the Soul Activation process for your inner guidance! These new jobs will focus on true Soul purpose--THOU SHALT NOT KILL IS FOR A REASON IN EVERY RELIGION! The Soul Activtion process unites every human being via their Soul thoughts, soul purpose, and actions. This will help stop the low, limited, fearful, reactive, seperation thoughts that came from the EGO MIND childhood traumas and hurtful teachings.
All drug highs can be accessed by learning this process to help stop the drug wars.
All aggressive youth can do hard physical labor or a sport--- no more war jobs!
New jobs that focus on love and light(positive, harmony, joy, dance, theatre, sharing caring, community, new healing , new food, new energies, new arts, music, humaniatrian services ) to help one another-- NO MORE JOBS FOR TERRORISM, WARRING, DRUG WARS, BUILDING JAILS and limit the negative news...jobs...

NEW JOBS, NEW FOCUS SO ALL HUMAN BEINGS CAN ATTRACT HAPPIER, HEALTHIER SOUL FILLED LIVES... It is time to bring this planet into the light and love energies we all need more of...to dispel the dark-- mess --we made from the old ego mind paradigms.... We must work together to bring in a Soul centered planet and activate our love and light thoughts, feelings and new actions----- for we are all connected!
Congressman Dennis Kucinich (founder of the US PEACE DEPT) believes in this simple process that can be taught and used to transform and unite this planet.Please, get messages to www.move.on.org--- they are huge--
many of the peace groups--it is only talk--it is not- not -not peaceful and joy ful for 4 yr olds and not for all races and not for religions and not from all love and light-- The Soul Activaton process is for all races, ages, genders and religions because we are just human beings that need more love and light medicine and help to find our divine inner guidance is best for us to follow! Not let people label us and tell us what we MUST DO... We have our own perfect -INNER SOLUTIONS THAT WE NEED-- WE ALL NEED TO KNOW WE CAN HAVE DIRECT connections WITH NTERGALACTIC SOURCE ENERGIES THAT ARE LOVE-- AND LIGHT ONLY-- WE CAN NOW experience and bring heaven to earth!
New GOVT!!!! jobs that use our higher Soul power connections and bring the answers (and channeling- from each individual)! We need to help one another and save this planet.
Please, sign the petition and get others to sign and HELP CREATE OUR NEW EARTH GOVTS...... THAT FOCUS ON HELPING ALL ATTRACT AND HAVE MORE LOVE AND LIGHT DAILY..

Most Sincerely,
Lynn Mystic-Healer

Comment by Wendy-Lobsang Dechen on January 24, 2009 at 5:51pm: Wise words by His Holiness The Dalai Lama:-

Everybody loves to talk about calm and peace, whether in a family, national, or international context. But without inner peace how can we make real peace? World peace through hatred and force is impossible. Even in the case of individuals, there is no possibility to feel happiness through anger. If in a difficult situation one becomes disturbed internally, overwhelmed by mental discomfort, then external things will not help at all. However, if despite external difficulties or problems, internally one's attitude is of love, warmth, and kind-heartedness, then problems can be faced and accepted.
- - - - - - - - -

The necessary foundation for world peace and the ultimate goal of any new international order is the elimination of violence at every level. For this reason the practice of non-violence surely suits us all. It simply requires determination, for by its very nature non-violent action requires patience. While the practice of non-violence is still something of an experiment on this planet, if it is successful it will open the way to a far more peaceful world in the next century.

Comment by Wayne Elkin on January 24, 2009 at 10:26am: Peace is as much an internal condition as an absence of war. If one feels peace with in transforms the peace into tender love and care and if it's shared freely it can grow . . . I know this is true

Comment by Minerva on January 24, 2009 at 2:37am: Nurture our own/individual Peace first - and work towards providing all the amenities/knowledge/support/tools, it takes, to make that possible for ALL individuals - then we can talk about Peace. :) xxx

Comment by Jane Young on January 24, 2009 at 2:27am: For me peace comes from within - peace in our hearts reflects as peace in our lives.

Love, joy, peace and blessings
