Wind of change

Greetings fellow iPeacers!

I have a vision of starting a kind of school/meetingpoint for making peace through
sustainable development and creative arts.
A place for people to come together and create beutiful things, and get inspired by
eachother to be able to spread this idea further out across the world.

I want to create a space of compassion for all beings,
having animals living for their own purposes,meaning
not to kill them to satisfy our tastebuds, instead letting them live
and prosper in a natural environment as they choose.
Healthy biodynamically grown food for at least all the beings living in the area.
A place for learning and teaching non-violent communication,music,painting,circus,pottery,theater,
story-telling,,permaculture-farming,healing arts,massage,dancing and
meditation,living in the wild and anything else that is leading to a peaceful planet.


I have been travelling quite a lot lately and There is a lot of confusion going on
in many of the souls that I encounter.
We are living in very stressfull times and people are being forced to struggle very hard to
make a living.
I see a will to live in harmony with eachother and with nature, but many people don´t seem to
realize that these factors are connected.
Some of us buy some organically grown foods and try in many ways to act in sound way...
We make some kind of art or write poetry or we try to raise our voices against the parts of the
established system that we find unfair.
These ways are very good, but, somehow I have come to a personal conclusion that there is a need to
create places where people live in a way that is sustainable to try to set some kind of
guide-lines for inspiring more people to choose to live their lives in similar ways.
This way of life may eventually inspire the leaders of our countries to get more peaceful
objectives.

I believe in being the change, for people to get inspired.

I find the ways of living like most humans do obviuosly destructive, and I want future generations
to be able to breathe clean air and drink pure living water and to eat non toxic food.
And also to be able to have the time to relax and evolve spiritually.
There are too many stressful ways of life that needs a change of course.

Many live to work together instead of working to live together.

I believe that I have the energy to be a part of a creation that can be a variety of the way
to the latter. A meetingpoint to share thoughts and feelings about anything leading to a
sustainable way of life.
A version of the tibetian culture in a modern way perhaps.

Soo... I joined iPeace, and read that there might be possibillities to be sponsored if a peaceful
idea pops up.
Is there anyone out there who finds these ideas interesting?
Are there even iPeace-people who would wish to participate in such a project?
And is there someone or some people that can help by sponsoring these dreams to help make
them a reality?

There are many places around the world working with these ideas, but I think far too few with a perspective of
looking at the wholeness of all.
Really trying to cover not just specific areas of living, but to really get to know the essence of life
and happiness in a loving way getting to know the inter-relations of every action.
Working scientifically as well as spiritually to weave together these outlooks.
I believe that people need to share their dreams and also live them to really find out if
they can function in a sound way.
I have been talking...a lot, with many people from all over the world and I feel I have carried with me
quite many dreams and wishes that I want to be a co-creator of.

One source of inspiration has been a series of books called "the ringing cedars series" written by an author named
Vladimir Megré, who has been inspired and led by a woman called Anastasia.
In these books I have found inspiration to many of my current thoughts and ways of conducting my way of life.
Allthough my financial situation and the prices of land has kept me from manifesting them fully.

Since I do not want to contribute to the current political system more than I need to survive and travel to places
where I imagine I can seek out interested people that can become a part of the ideas I have adopted, I am also in a way
financially handicapped.
I do not live on wellfare or get any money directly from any taxpaying company as it is right now.
The money I make I earn from playing music and making performances on the streets and squares where I work to raise
awareness singing and talking about what I find important.
I also help people build things or cut firewood and all kinds of things that I find helpfull, for a minor payment.
I am not interested in financial wealth, I just want to live,love learn and teach what I have learnt through my life.
The way of life I imagine will require quite a lot of work, especially in the beginning when the gardens are being created,
so if you are interested in participating you must concider this.
I want to work to be living with people that are compassionate and willing to be dedicated in making a radical change, and
this change will require mostly playfullness but also a great portion of seriousness.

What I imagine as a beginning would be to get a hold of 50 acres of land, both forest and fields to be able to plant food
for the all the beings sharing the land to be able to live,play and multiply in some degree of freedom,
until all fences and borders can be erased for us all to move freely on this planet of multitude.
Another inspiration has been one translated version in swedish of the speech held by Chief Seattle that really holds a lot
of wisdom and love for all of creation that I share, but I believe as Chief Seattle I also don´t see the sustainability and
lasting beuty in the ways of life of many of my brothers and sisters.
I believe there can be endless ways for all of us to find peace and happiness and I also believe that this kind of creation
can be one of them.

With love and good will-Ingemar Lyzell Nilsson
